The Trek Checkpoint ALR 5 is a high-performance aluminium gravel bike built for long adventures, fast-paced racing and rugged off-road exploration. Its lightweight 300 Series Alpha Aluminium frame combines durability with versatility, offering mounts for racks, mudguards and bags so you can customise it for bikepacking or commuting. Equipped with a carbon fork, SRAM Apex 12-speed drivetrain and powerful hydraulic disc brakes, it delivers reliable shifting and confident stopping power on mixed terrain. Bontrager GR1 Team Issue tyres, tubeless-ready Paradigm wheels and stable geometry make this gravel race bike equally at home on gravel roads, tarmac or light trails.
