Freedom, speed, and reliance. These are the keywords that define the Checkpoint SL 5 bike.
Freedom
Its impressive tire clearance allows you to accommodate tires up to 45c, allowing you to challenge the toughest roads and emerge triumphant.
Made of carbon this bike is shock absorbent. 2, 8, or 12 hours no matter how long you ride you’ll always feel comfortable. This means you can travel longer distances and explore more.
Speed
The Stranglehold Dropout allows you to run singlespeed. There are several benefits from this transition, one of the most enjoyable is the ability to descend at top speed from a hill. Your fatigued leg days are over.
On the opposite side, the Shimano GRX drivetrain with lower gears allows you to climb the steepest hill as if it was an anthill.
Reliance
A beautiful but tough 500 Series OCLV Carbon frame, hydraulic disc brakes, and Control Freak internal routing make this a versatile bike. Adapt it to your specific needs, take it anywhere you want. This is an extremely dependable bike that won’t let you down.
Furthermore, it has mounts for 4 water bottle cages. Perhaps not letting you suffer from dehydration is a pretty good quality of this gravel bike. Won’t you agree?
