rear caliper question

I read a post on here about having to twist and push the rear caliper piston in, is this true for the gen 2 also?

i believe all years are like this, theres a tool you can buy for it though, or.... you can take the difficult route and use needle nose pliers, which i highly do not suggest, let me see if i can find a link for you

The cube sucks.. I have the tool or something similar to what lj posted.. it takes 10 seconds to push the piston back in.. hardest part is taking it out if the package and setting it up.. lol

Yes, you are correct. You have to press and turn. The fronts require pressing only.
