Sparsely ridden, rear caliper seized last ride.
Pulled the caliper and compressed the caliper. There was some binding in the caliper that worked itself out after compressing a bit then working brake. One of the pistons was binding. So at reinstall I fully compress and now have no brakes. I feel the issue is in master cylinder as pedal is floppy with 0 resistance. Can't even bleed system as pedal just flops.
I did crack lid on fluid reservoir, can't imagine a seal blew on compression, caliper seals look fine. any thoughts? I feel as though something got pushed beyond its action point when I compressed.
