Will check the rotor.
I know about the problems of hitting the brake lever with no wheel on. But i don't feel that is the root. There is a retaining pin that goes through the caliper body and the brake pad clip, and the pin has a spring retaining clip. I assume something caught the retaining spring and pulled it off, allowing the retaining pin to work it's way out. Oh well, we learn what to beware of from past experiences.
