8. Trek Yoshitomo Nara
Trek tapped Japanese artist Yoshimoto Narra for a project and this bike is the product of that partnership. Narra, a known punk soul who likes to draw images of children showing negative facial expressions, made that tendency clear with the Trek bike that bears his name.

Sold at auction at Sothebys in New York in 2009 to raise money for the LiveStrong cancer charity, this Trek Modane model, known as Butterfly thanks to the hundreds of real butterflies adorning its frame and wheels, became the world’s most expensive bike when it sold for $500,000.

Ridden by disgraced Lance Armstrong in the final stage of 2009’s Tour de France and designed by Damien Hirst, the bike caused controversy due to the artist’s use of real butterflies. The Trek Butterfly is just one of several Trek bikes that have sold for huge sums at auction over the years.
