Stripped Pedal thread
I just stripped my pedal threading on the driv-side of one of my cranks installing a new set of pedals. The pedals seems to be fine. I was able to successfully installed them on another bike, but the crank seems to be shot. I reinstalled the old pedals and try a new one with varing results. Is there a way to rethread them, or do I have to buy new cranks?

You're SOL. Bad luck. Well, maybe you needed to upgrade that crankset anyway. You can always keep the rings, and the non-drive side crank arm might come in handy in the future.
