Actually, the default class for the outer UL is "web2py-menu
web2py-menu-vertical". It is explicitly set to "sf-menu" in layout.html of
the "welcome" app (so it works properly with Superfish):
<div id="menu">
{{=MENU(response.menu, _class='mobile-menu' if is_mobile else
'sf-menu', mobile=is_mobile)}}
</div>
As you can see, all you have to do is set the _class argument:
{{=MENU(response.menu, _class='your-custom-class')}}
