Did you only do one side of the car? If so therein lies your problem. Time to redo both sides now.

But yes, air in the lines could cause it but its more than likely that you only did one side of the car.

If you did do both sides try pumping the brakes a few times.

I don't think tha calipers are bad. It could be low fluid or something. I still think you should try to pump the brakes and see if that stifens the pedal up a bit. I wouldn't really drive it until lyou figure out what the problem is.
