That's a lot.
But why did they JB registered some of the Striders??? Might as well all use the MK4 DM3500s.
Might as well throw all the Batch 1 Euro 4 KUBs into JB service. Mk 4 B10Ms will start going off the road in a few years. -

I think SBST might get MAN buses in future for cross boarder services once the MK4s are retired. -
seems the JB MKIVs buses not relatively stable, did not stick to perm services ( keep running around)
maybe it takes time to stable ?

mostly stable, while some are actually SP or perm other svcs.these remaining are actually reserves for either 160 or 170.

There are 60 allocated buses for 170, scheduled for operations is 41 buses (from sgwiki). The remaining 19 are spares for 170 (some and not all of the spares may have an allocated perm service).
Buses spotted on 160 so far: 2719 2723 2724 2726 2733 2734 2746 2748 2750 2752 2757 2761 2762 2765 2767 2773 2775 2780 (2 more left to spot).
Buses spotted on 170 so far: 2685 2687 2690 2692 2696 2697 2711 2712 2718 2721 2736 2737 2745 2751 2753 2756 2759 2766 2768 2774 2779 2781 2783 2789 2796 2798 2803 2805 2806 2807 2814 2815 2816 2817 2818 2820 2821 2822 2823 2824 2825 2827 2828 2829 2832 2834 2835 2836 2837 2838 (10 left to spot)
Not spotted: 2686 2688 2707 2728 2731 2735 2738 2742 2747 2772 2787 2830 (12, of which 2 are for 160, the rest 170)
Judging from the dates the JB Mk4s get the LPKP permits, the last 2 allocated for 160 are 2772 and one amongst these regos (2687 2707 2728 2731 2742 2747 2787). Do the JB Mk4s still have the fare chart inside the bus?2772 on 170 today.. 2830 on 170 few day back.
