Overview
You're in it for the adventure and want a performance gravel bike so you can go further and faster. You spend long days in the saddle, and want the gravel-smoothing ride of Trek's exclusive IsoSpeed decoupler on your dream gravel bike build.
A 500 Series OCLV Carbon frame with Rear IsoSpeed and carbon armour, a carbon fork, a progressive geometry that's stable at speed and efficient when you're grinding up a climb, internal storage, hidden cables that won't interfere with bags, integrated frame bag mounts and rack and mudguard mounts. It comes with a headset and is built for 12 mm thru axles, flat-mount disc brakes and a T47 bottom bracket. You can even run a dropper post to get low on long descents. Fits up to 45 c tyres.
The Checkpoint SL frame set is the ideal starting point for a performance gravel bike build. The geometry keeps you stable yet speedy, it's covered in extra mounts, you get internal storage and it has an IsoSpeed decoupler for compliance on rough terrain.
- The IsoSpeed decoupler soaks up fatiguing bumps without bouncing you around
- All-new progressive geometry is quick and nimble yet keeps you stable and in control on fast, choppy descents
- A sleek internal storage compartment gives you a versatile spot to stow tools and gear
- Integrated frame bag mounts and rack and mudguard mounts make it easy to carry gear and water
- This bike is exceedingly versatile and suited to a wide variety of ride styles, including gravel rides, bikepacking and daily commutes
