Avid Elixir Pistons are Stuck!
To disable ads, please log-in.
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!
