No, what Mike said was that having two frames exhibit the exact same problem was highly unlikely. If I was Gyeswho I would have fixed the problem much as he did, asked BD for a $50 refund for my trouble, and chipped in another $50 and had the frame powdercoated to a color of my choice. Hell, I had a small scratch on the chainstay of my WT, sent a picture to BD and they sent me a $10 refund to by touchup paint.
