Front brakes binding but no usual heat signs
#4
The rubber seal around the piston pulls the piston back when you lift off the pedal, sticking on shouldn't be an air in lines problem. However you will be almost certainly be lacking brake force and getting an imbalance under braking so it does need bleeding properly!

Did you clean and grease the slide pins when doing the refurb? That's usually what causes binding on these. Also are you sure its the fronts binding not the rears?
