Bought a MTB but pads were shot meaning pistons can't be retracted enough to fit rotor in. They move individually freely but obviously they're pushing another out as one is pressed back. Apart from a full re-bleed, is it possible to unscrew bleed post and push the pistons back with the release of (hopefully a bit of air, though the brakes are solid) just enough fluid so they don't 'push back meaning there's a gap for the rotor to fit into and the brakes are still functional?
