My Miche BB arrived this morning and I can't help but feel the thread looks ruined, and im anxious about fitting it and causing further damage to my frame. Picture below, would really appreciate if someone could advise wether i should be returning this.

This is my first fixed build and kind of learning about BBs as I go.

Thanks for any assistance.

Whether or not the thread is ruined, it's a miche bb so you should send it back/bin it/kill it with fire anyway.

It's ugly but not necessarily more than cosmetic. Does it bind? if not then the threads are not out-of-form, just missing their tops.

If new, though I agree, send it back. If used and you are stuck with it, tell yourself it adds character.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
