:eek: The pistons on my rear break, (Avid Elixir's) are stuck out. I tried to push them back in with a flat headed screw driver but they're not moving. Any ideas how to get them back in? I tried bleeding the brakes, but that didn't seem to help. If anything it got worse. Maybe too much fluid? HELP!

In case this ever happens to anyone else, try loosening the bleed screw on the lever and using a flat head screw driver push the pistons back into place.
