Stripped pedal thread on SRAM Omniums

Hey all,

So I posted a while back probably last year about my Omniums drive size pedal thread being stripped. I've since purchased a new set which are fine but in 165. I'd like to see if I can get some help helicoil the thread. If anyone know's any shops I can send them out to to get it fixed I'd like to do this. They're 170 in length and I'd like to ride that for training this winter. Any help greatly appreciated. I'll take pictures in the morning to give you a better look.

Find yourself a local machine shop, they can do that for you and you won't have to ship it.

Your lbs probably knows someone used to doing it to bike parts, it's not rocket science fortunately.

Some better bike shops will have helicoil pedal repair kits in stock and can do it in house too.
