I've got a set of Hope disc brakes on one of my bikes. The levers seem to take a bit more force to squeeze as compared to my Shimano ones (Ultegra and XT). I only started noticing this recently since most of my miles lately have been on the Shimano equipped bikes. So I don't know if the levers were always like this or maybe some maintenance is needed. I've bled them as needed (which hasn't been much). Would doing a complete brake fluid drain help? or do I just need to do grip exercises? I'll estimate 2000 miles on the Hopes and other than having been bled once or twice, the only thing I've really done is change out pads.
