I found myself looking at mountain bikes on eBay during my lunch hour at work. Don’t ask me how or why, because I’ve already got a good bike and don’t need another one. Anyway, I was intrigued by an auction that was starting at £2,999. I read the description of the item to see if I could glean why the bike was so expensive…
