Ah yes, an integral reservoir would be a pain.  I used to have access to a professional pressure top-down bleeding system for cars, and that really was a the bees knees - sorry to hear you've got stuck, fingers crossed your mechanic can sort it!

Mechanic sorted the bleeding for a tenner. After all the hours I had put in!? 

The travel was still a bit long and once I started riding the brake was horribly noisy and ineffective. Riding about dragging the brake for a while solved the noise and lack of friction. By the end of the day the travel has shortened slightly so it now seems all good. I’ll show the pads and disc some brake cleaner and emery this week, just to make sure.
