For the price of bc's I would not like to cheap out and trust my suspension that has once become defective.
A decent analogy would be along the lines of once a girl has had her threads skipped, you would not date her.

Sounded like a legit thread, became another narita nothing useful.
A) bc aren't "that" expensive
B) a machine shop is not a yobbo with a grinder doing 1/2 cut springs. There is nothing wrong with it if the can straighten the thread.
C) no idea about your analogy

I dont mean to be following you around... but what?
Having a professional repair a thread is hardly cheaping out.

Meaning bcs are cheap so why would I pay someone to machine it.
I dont appreciate putting my stories on pause and letting my chai tea get cold so I can come into this thread and correct silly people.
If you would like to roll around on once defective suspension be my gues but remember, just because the sky is blue doesnt make the grass green.

Ask for advice,
tell everyone you are too busy sipping tea to be as cheap as them.
Come on man troll harder.

In all seriousness, I take my welfare quite seriously.
Therefore I would not depend on a machine shop to "fix" my suspension.
Not too hard to understand if you read it slowly.
Also chai tea is a personal favorite for me as it keeps the mind and body in good health.
