Do you think that possibly the pads were binding up when you first tried to seat them after the install and didn't seat all the way, and then when you finally got on them on the road, the slipped and seated all the way? Because it doesn't sounds like a fluid issue since you did not open the bleeder valve during the install.

But its never a bad idea to bleed anyway.
