[Closed] What's up with my brake pads

I seem to be suffering from irritating brake pad oddness:

I put some new pads in; power is a bit rubbish until they've bedded in, from which point they're fine, for the rest of the day and subsequent days if I use it regularly (eg. to work and back every day).

If it stays in the shed for a few days however, When it comes out again it's like the brakes have "bedded out" again - they feel firm but they just don't have much power until I've bedded them in again. Back in the shed it goes afterwards, and the same happens again...

They don't need bleeding, they work fine after bedding them in each time, but they just don't like not being used for a while. Why not?

Yours in puzzlement

Phil
