Default Re: Rear tokico piston seized?

Here's a decent tut I used to learn from.

Then you'll need to find one about renewing brake fluid/bleeding once you've put it all back together, if you've not done that before. Take your time, be thorough, but an easy job with some patience.

The key things not to forget are:
- Make sure the pistons are out as far as possible before you disassemble the calliper/remove from the hydraulics, otherwise they can be hard to get out. You don't want to damage them by gripping them with grips.
- Crack all the bolts before you take the calliper off the bike, otherwise they can be next to impossible to undo without clamping the calliper in a vice

The rest of it is just taking it apart, giving it a good deep clean and putting it back together with some red rubber grease.
