Well done!

 

If you are having problems bleeding the back brake make sure that the master cylinder piston and seals are in decent condition, also worth rotating the M/C piston through 180 degrees as they seem to wear more on one side due to them being pressed at a slight angle by the pedal.

Take the brake pads out and clamp the pistons fully home, this stops any sneaky bubbles getting trapped behind and makes bleeding easier. Bleed them as best as you can (gravity feed for 20mins first) and then leave overnight with the brake pedal / lever cable strapped at the position when pressure is coming on (not fully down), this can help squeeze out any air still in the system.

Semi synthetic oils have and do work fine in a trials application as long as the quality is good. The ratios do not change from full synthetic and 80:1 is fine. The bikes are not highly stressed and unless one is road riding at high sustained speed and revs I would not increase the ratio of either as the performance is comparable in all but the most highly stressed conditions and temps.. which you are unlikely to achieve on a trials bike.
