When I replaced my calipers with rebuilt ones (thanks Eric), I had a heck of a time getting a firm pedal after bleeding. A long ride on a bumpy road followed by pressure bleeding finally did the trick for me, but gravity bleeding is certainly an easy, safe way to bleed the brakes as well. In the long run, whatever works to get rid of air in the system!
