Help i am just about to change front pads seems easy enough. But what's the easy way to shove the pistons. On a car you would take caliper off and shove piston in with g clamp.
Any advice would be great.
Thanks
Chris

Re: front brake pads
i move them before removing the pads... just put a pry bar between them or a spanner, then use another spanner to turn it sideways.
open the res and put some cloths down to catch any fluid expelled.

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.
