Checkpoint SL 5 is a carbon gravel bike made for epic all-road adventures. It's built with lightweight OCLV Carbon, terrain-smoothing IsoSpeed, nimble-yet-stable progressive geometry, internal storage and loads of mounts. All of that adds up to a rad gravel bike capable of crushing the longest, roughest rides and the most ambitious bikepacking trips.

The tech you get

A 500 Series OCLV Carbon frame with Rear IsoSpeed and carbon armor, 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 fender mounts. Plus, a carbon fork, a 2x11 Shimano GRX drivetrain with lower gears for grinding up hills or through rough gravel, and Paradigm SL wheels. You can even run a dropper post to get low on long descents.

Why you'll love it

1. The IsoSpeed decoupler soaks up fatiguing bumps without bouncing you around
2. All-new progressive geometry is quick and nimble yet keeps you stable and in control on fast, choppy descents
3. A sleek internal storage compartment gives you a versatile spot to stow tools and gear
4. Massive tire clearance means you can use tires up to 45c for extra traction and stability in any conditions
