Quick question. I lightly rebuild about 50 bikes a year, (for donation), and try to do all repairs myself. I have always avoided loose bottom brackets since I did not have the tools for removal. Simply, they intimidated me. I have removed and reinstalled 2 in the last couple of months and feel better about the task. The only thing that I see a problem with is finding threads that are not in good condition. I don't want to spend $450.00 for a Park thread chaser. I see cheap $60.00 ones online, but is this a case of you get what you pay for? I also see right and left taps for around $90.00. a pair. Any advice on what to buy for thread clean-up.

Thanks
