Well the MC is just a big syringe isn't it. But the problem is that there are places for air to hide. I guess you could fill it up on the bench to get rid of those pockets. These aren't cleared by the normal stroke of the piston. Easiest way though I think is to mount it all up, remove the delivery pipe, put your finger over it (with a cloth to catch the fluid) then have an assistant push down on the pedal. Then seal the outlet with your finger and allow the pedal back up slowly. This ensures that fluid is drawn into the cylinder from the reservoir rather then back up the delivery pipe. I dunno how, but it clears the bubbles in the toob pretty much in one go. Worked wonders for my brakes.
On the subject of brakes, I am running Milners new offerings. They gave me a set to try and I can honestly say they are the best pads in terms of stopping that I have had so far. Mine takes a lot of stopping. Anyone who has tried to lift one of my wheels will know this. So on normal wheels and set up, I'd imagine they'd be pretty good. Can't say what they're like on wear until I get into the front brakes again but I went through a set of OME pads in just over 1000 miles. Like I said, the beast takes some stopping.
