So I notice this year that I need to pump my brake handle a couple times to get the sled to stop. It feels like there might be air in the lines. This didn't happen last year. I putt in a new set of brake pads this weekend and blead the lines. Brake handle was firm but later in the day when I was riding the same thing happen, I had to pump the handle a couple of times to get brake pressure. Any idea on what is causing this?

Check to be sure all lines are tight at the fittings. Not loosing fluid?

Make sure the disc hasn't warped and is pushing the pads back.
