Thanks Mike. Those numbers are further apart than I realised.
30N difference means that, if it deflects 8mm on a 160N/mm it will probably be nearer 10mm on 130 (citation required) which seems small for a static load but probably more significant when its bouncing about in use.

Do you want air in the braking system hydraulics?

I was holding out hope that the air bubble gave some compressible damping! I think you're correct in this statement though.
