BH G6 with Record EPS, but that's well over 5k. Honestly, though, my current bike suits my needs just fine.

Pivot Mach429 Sram XX1 drivetrain, XTR brakes, SID XX WorldCup fork and Enve AM wheels. Are we only talking about road bikes?

Well the Orca M50 will have to wait............going to get a 13' Orca BRV due to price and fact it takes a std. seat post and not that aero seat post that I can only assume would be expensive to replace!
