I just bought a 2nd hand 3t Exploro Racemax from someone online, I didnt test ride the bike and got it shipped to my place. I tested it out today and noticed the brake caliper might be stuck. Please advise on what the problem might be. Its running on Sram force axs electronic groupset

The left brakes works fine but the right brake seems to be stuck and the rear wheel not spinning smoothly
Probably they didn’t use a brake insert when they took off the wheels to put it in the box, then the brake was squeezed and now it’s lost the correct distance between pads. You need to reset the pistons and bleed the brake. Look online for tutorials and tools required.
Push the pistons back. You can use a flat screw driver or get a specific tool for it
Plastic caliper piston insert should be easy to find online. Also realign the calipers.
Someone squeeze the brake lever without the wheel in place?
