It's been a while since we covered a really expensive bike but with spring finally here it's time to venture out into the world and get some exercise. Ellsworth bikes is considered to be some of the best bikes available. It has Instant Center Tracking and a four-bar suspension system which allows you get the most benefit from your pedaling without having to worry about the stability of the bike and it works whether you are sitting or not. It is available in a variety of configurations and colors. If you order the pink frame, Ellsworth will donate $50 to cancer research. Configured with all the bells and whistles, the Ellsworth Truth will run you between $6,000 to nearly $10,000.
The company also offers the Ellsworth Ride a truly extraordinarily looking bike that uses the gearless NuVinci™ Continuously Variable Planetary (CVP) drive.

the ellsworth ride looks less impressive in person than the CG mockups on their website make it appear:

And I'm not sure Ellsworth is the be all and end all in luxury bikes. Moots, for instance, is superior in all regards.
