as one of Neil's bump-start team, I'd say you should absolutely not consider pistes until you have got clearance between the laser and caliper. when Neil's caliper broke off, it ripped through the side wall and inner tube. we had all (Neil, Martin and I) been stupid enough to ignore the small dent. modify the exhaust and come back safe.
as scarey as it would be, you'd do better to remove the caliper than letting it wreck your tyre/tube/wheel ...
