Default Clutch Pedal Stiff After New Clutch

I had my stock clutch replaced with a factory clutch (under warranty) and now the clutch pedal is pretty stiff. Is there anyway to adjust the pedal pressure?

Either that or it wasn't completely bled the first time around.

How long will it take to work itself out?

Break in period for most cluthes is 500-700 miles of in town city driving. Lots of clutch shifting. For the best results
