if you can not get a pedal after bleeding a number of times and the backs have been adjusted with no joy it sounds like your seal has gone

sounds silly but check your retaining springs for your pads are in the right position as this can cause really crap brakes as a spring in the wrong position can try and push the pistons on the calipers back in too far
