Inspired from an earlier post (http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/which-is-better-one-super-bike-or-multiple-bikes-for-different-ocassions/page/2)

Super bike* = unique or expensive (say above £4500 rrp)

*my defination

For the record I don’t have a super bike but I do appreciate some bike porn 🙂

Shall I start?
Yeti ASR-C. XTR, Middleburn, Tune Prince & Princess on Alex XCR Pros, Magura Durin Race, lots of Mt Zoom lovely bits, Formula R1s.
.
Not a unique frame but a unique combination of parts, inluding some rare bits

A Yeti in its natural habitat.

Up a mountain yesterday, my only bike and its even called a Super Bike, either that or it stands for Stewarts bike (then great marketing job).

Coming Soon….

My cube stereo 160sl
Carbon frame, bars and crank arms, reverb stealth, formula floating rotors and gold kmc chain 🙂

Di2 Cannondale Scalpel – sold this
Tallboy Carbon

XX1, Carbon wheels/bar/saddle, and avalanche tuned suspension… its very super to me.

On the right Lynskey Ridgeline with XTR.
Now in bits because I prefer my little Highball Ali which now has the xtr.

For the record I count 8 so far not including mine.

Best is the Dale and Tallboy’s in my opinion.

yeh yeh i know the garden is a mess, not mine so I don’t care 😀

custom Ti black sheep, prototype Goldtec SS hubs, custom modded XTR brakes. The perfect bike for slowly mincing like wot i do

Taz.
Whoever had that sheep built for them must have been a total tool.

Looks like you’ve been using some of your special polishing juice on it. 😆

stu i’ve been using schwaffle gleam for that ultra smooth finish…. I’m just waiting to catch your gnar from it 😀

Was about to post a pic of my enduro build but although well
Above 4500 I don’t think it’s special.

A super bike needs have that somthing about it love that ti single speed

I love this bike more than any I have ever owned.

Just fitted some 1410g Crest/tune/DT wheels to it lighter rotors and slightly lighter tyres and lost almost 2 lbs from my heavy hope wheels and 2 piece rotor set up.

Loving the XO cranks and AbsoluteBlack 32t spiderless chainring as well

Currently 19lb dead and with non snakeskin tyres (needed around here) and the rigid carbon niner fork it would be high 16s!

My submission!! 2011 Sworks Epic. Full XX groupset Now with reverb, crests, Easton bars, and XT Trail brakes. I love this bike brilliantly fast a once in a lifetime buy. Im nothing special this bike is more capable than Ill ever be.

S-Works Epic with Reverb? Heretic! 😉

Here’s my Top Fuel:

XTR 1×10, 1240g Podium/A2Z wheels, now got a Kashima fork and an E.13 guide, but otherwise very similar!

I’d better add an Intense to the frame:
My 6.6 if built from scratch with new parts would be about £4.5k so just fits into your needs…
Full XT 2 x 10 with clutch
Vanilla 36’s
XTR pedals
Pro3 AM4 wheels
Hope Tech M4’s

That’s brought the tone down a bit Yunki! No room for SLX in a superbike thread! 😉

@feisty, that in my eyes is a perfect bike, absolutely love it.

Here’s my latest build which I guess could be considered to be on the way to being a super bike (despite it being an On-One!)

Lurcher frame
Niner forks
Hope Pro 2 EVO on Stans Crest, Rocket Ron 2.1 front/rear
Hope Stealth Race X2 EVO brakes
XX shifter, XX1 cranks, X0 short cage mech
Thomson post (Reverb on the way), Thomson stem, Answer bars, ESI chunky grips

It needs some tweaks (bar height is still being worked out), but I’m happy with it so far.

Looks great! Not tempted by the whole XX1 group?

@njee20 the plan was initially SS with 1×10 in the future, but finding SS dropouts was a PITA so I just went geared straight away. XX1 would be nice but I already had the 10 speed cassette and the only reason I ended up with XX1 cranks was because I had a hard time finding any X0 cranks for a decent price!

I’ve not actually ridden it yet as I only finished it yesterday and had my stomach tattooed on Saturday morning so it was still a bit sore, but will hopefully get out on it this week and then will decide if I need more gears or not 😉

If you planned SS and have ended up with 1×10 I’m sure you’ll be fine!

Not in the £4500 price range, but unique:

not supertech or superexpensive perhaps njee20, but certainly supercool.. which is the only thing that really matters if we’re honest with ourselves.. 8)

Here’s mine
So much fun

Mine

Kevins, had forks and wheels upgrade since pic

Frames a few years old now but still qualifies I think. Lighter than most carbon frames with similar travel.

Do we need a “Show us your Super Rider” thread to go along with this one?? 😉

My superbike, a Jones steel std frame with truss fork – because there’s nothing else that could do all that this bike does and be so much fun doing it, or be likely to survive the amount of use/abuse this bike has seen. I have a posher version but somehow that makes it less super.
