I work for a turbine company and use heli-coils all the time, so if you need one let me now what size you want and i can do it for you.

cant say off the top of my head what size it is. bikes in the shop at the minute. its the same size as most clamps on stems, brakes, 20mm bolt through pinch bolts etc etc. picked up a set of flat crowns and one of the threads is stripped.
