I admit brake fade was a long shot but then my logical mind leaned towards that in the absence of anything else obvious. The m/c was brand new and unused however, it had been sitting on the shelf for a while but I didn't see that this should have been an issue? It was a git to bleed and I ended up reverse bleeding using the syringe you get in an ink refill kit!
Pumping the pedal does bring it back almost immediately but one tends to lose trust in a pedal that goes to the floor with little warning...
I've got the seals now so will check Jeff's suggestion when I refit it.
Thanks again all
