Rear brake pedal unexpectedly soft. Brakes bled in accordance with manufacturer recommendations and fluid use (DOT5.1). Brake regains firmness, but quickly looses effectiveness and becomes soft, limiting braking capability. Alternate bleeding method also attempted with similar results. Brake pedal will remain firm for some time, but then returns to soft feel, creating unexpected braking performance.
