Description
The Checkpoint SL 5 AXS Gen 3 is an adventure-ready carbon
gravel bike built to roll into the distant horizon. Its lightweight carbon
frame is designed with comfort-focused geometry, room for beefy
50 mm tyres (as measured), and plenty of frame and fork mounts.
Plus, IsoSpeed comfort technology helps soak up jarring road
vibrations, so you can you float over chatter and potholes. It comes
equipped with a wireless SRAM Apex XPLR AXS drivetrain to
deliver plenty of gears for exploring the dusty road.
The Checkpoint’s Gravel Endurance geometry lets you sit higher
up and features a shorter reach to keep you comfortable on allday
gravel adventures, light singletrack, bike-packing trips and
more
Road-smoothing IsoSpeed comfort tech soaks up vibration from
rough surfaces to keep you feeling fresher for longer

add extra traction and cushion for rowdy gravel roads
You can haul it all with large internal frame storage and mounts
galore on the frame and fork for hydration, front and rear racks,
mudguards and Adventure Bags that were designed to perfectly
fit the Checkpoint
