Trek Checkpoint SL 6 AXS ’24
Checkpoint SL 6 AXS is a carbon gravel bike designed to take you places you’d never reach on a standard road bike. A lightweight OCLV Carbon frame with gravel-smoothing IsoSpeed, a smart and smooth SRAM Rival XPLR AXS wireless electronic drivetrain, nimble, yet stable progressive geometry, and internal storage and loads of mounts for bikepacking make this bike a true gravel powerhouse and a great choice for serious gravel, dirt, or all-road adventurers.
