Lapierre 714 Carbon, with replaced (under warranty) alloy chainstays.

One of the rear pivot bolts has been helicoiled already. Helicoil has now come out.

Options/thoughts:
a - Can I get it re-helicoiled? (suggestions in Stirling)
b - Would it be worth £150 frame + shock alone, if clear about the issue? (cost of OneOne 466 Evo)
c - Sell it up as complete bike, if clear about the issue? With Revelations and full SLX/Hope/DH Rims, would it be worth £500.

I am tempted by selling frame and going for 456e

A. Has it ripped out or unthreaded? Either way should be fixable if there is some meat left.
B & C Sounds cheap to me but depends on condition.
