Subject: [DML] Brakes gettign dangerous

My brake pedal travel has increased from about 20% to about 80% in the 
last approx 1000 miles. After pumping the brake pedal once or twice, 
the rpoblem is gone for that braking event; however, the problem 
returns after going a few seconds between braking times. The fluid 
level has not dropped in the master reservoir and there are no 
apparent leaks.  It feels like air in the system but I cannot imagine 
how this would have occurred since I very thoroughly bled the brakes 
over 1.5 years ago (and re-did all the cylinders, hoses, etc.)

Your thoughts on the cause would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Wood
