I hope you learned your lesson. Never share an ebay link that you intend to win...
Now catch my bike next week in the picture megathread to see it's new cranks and completed philsexyness.

Kit doesn't match
Yes, in reality eBay auctions are a week's worth of advertising with 30 seconds of mad bidding. It all makes sense, but I hate it, so I almost never bother.
