So you can fix a bike

[machew]

Full disclosure - I didn't spot this I was made aware of it by a friend.

The television advert from the Royal Navy states "So, you can fix a board, then you can fix a bike" however - the chap in question obviously can't. The cranks are not aligned correctly and it would be very difficult to pedal it correctly.

The guy in the first scene ended up working in Halfords.

When he fixes that 4 and half inch naval gun he will put the barrel on the wrong way and shoot his own ship!

Oh I once managed to get both cranks at 6 o' clock, when I replaced a square taper BB. I didn't notice until I tried to pedal away.

They knew they needed a bike that needs fixing... so they got a new one from Sport Direct.

Hope that guy doesn't "fix" that helicopter.

Good point, so did I in the beginning.

I gave up fixing my bike upside-down when I found the blood rushed to my head.
