The Checkpoint SL 7 AXS Gen 3 is a carbon gravel bike built to explore the beyond. Its lightweight carbon frame is designed with a Gravel Endurance geometry, tons of mounts and clearance for up to 50 mm tyres (as measured). Plus, IsoSpeed comfort tech helps soak up jarring vibrations to help you float over chatter and potholes. It's decked out with upgrades where you want them most, like carbon wheels and seat post, and a wireless SRAM Force AXS D2 drivetrain.
