Hit a bit of brick on the road on the way home and it's dislodged one of the rear brake pads - how unlucky? Struggled the couple of miles home with minimal braking.
Just whipped the wheel off and the piston is touching the rear disk, no suprise there. Question is, is it just case of winding the piston back in and new pads, or will that be too much travel on the piston? I.e. new seals?
As the piston is right against the disk, is it caliper off to then be able to lever the piston back, or is there a cunning way to get the piston back in?
