I was putting pegs on earlier and it looked like a spring was sprouting from the axle, turned out the axle had unthreaded, I've emailed George French but I was just wondering what you'd do, anyway around this?
I do stuff and I'm not good at it.
I got refs

You need a new helicoil. Happened to me when it first came out. I emailed odyssey and they sent me a new axle. It was probably threaded in wrong. Just like any other part a select few will have issues. It happens
I'm on the vital legit list!

I seek progression, not perfection.

If you rode hard enough to bend p10s, you could destroy one too... Jk lol. Hes probably 10 and cries when he scratches his bike. The only thing he might have actually broken is a spoke or popped a tube... (after nearly 3 years of riding I still havent broken a spoke lol)

Damn dude seriously I tried to get my friend a new axle for his Vandero 2 since the exact same thing happened.
The whole thread came out and the bolts wouldn't rip on anything.
They offered me a discount though, I just said thanks and bought a new axle off Winstanelys for 7 bucks.
Is this wha/Users/andreaferlazzo/Downloads/photo 1.JPGt happened?

To get you by you can cut the exposed part of the helicoil. Automotive shops should have and be able to install a new helicoil too
I'm a punk bmxer, I can't do it well so I do it loud.
