Trek Checkpoint SL 5 – First Impressions

The not-so-minor details.

Trek Checkpoint SL 5

https://www.trekbikes.com

Grab your flannel shirt, lace-up shoes and enamel camping mug, Trek has a new bike that might just be what you’ve been looking for. The all-new Checkpoint 5 SL might confuse you as to what it is exactly, but in fact, Trek has let you decide yourself what to do with it, so far what we can tell is they’re calling it a; ‘gravel bike for epic all-road adventures’.

We know what we’ll do with it – adventures! – but before we give it a run to the hills let’s take a look at this unique animal in closer detail.

So many things to look at.

It might look like a road bike from afar but take a couple steps closer and you’ll notice frame features you’d never see on a classic road bike. We’re talking about; rack/utility mounts, multiple water bottle cage mounts, loads of tyre clearance, 12mm thru-axles, impact protection under the downtube, and an adjustable wheelbase.

IsoSpeed decoupler, the fancy little bump-diffuser.

As seen on the Trek Procaliber is Trek’s unique vibration dampening system; IsoSpeed. Seen on Trek’s cross-country hardtail; the Procaliber, the Boone cyclocross bike and their endurance road bike, Domane.

It’s like the tiniest bit of suspension to take the sting out of the road.

It essentially uses a bushing and axle arrangement at the junction of the seat tube and top tube to allow the seat post to bend backwards independently from the top tube, adding comfort when seated. The top tube and seat tube tube are completely separate parts, joined by the decoupler unit.

See the IsoSpeed used for the purpose of mountain biking here: Trek Procaliber review.

Flow ‘GravelCross’ Bike, sorry, what?

We are aware that our name Flow Mountain Bike is completely void of words like ‘cyclocross’ or ‘gravel’, nor do we profess to be experts in the field of gravel but we’ve ridden quite a few nowadays, and our road bikes are gathering dust because of it. What’s going on?

C’mon, we know mountain bikers are hard on road bikes. There are even gravel events popping up like this one!

Isn’t it just a cyclocross bike?

In comparison to Trek’s cyclocross bike – The Boone – the Checkpoint’s frame geometry is lower in the bottom bracket, taller up the front and has considerably more tyre clearance. The adjustable wheelbase will provide the rider with the ability to select a fast and agile feel, or long and stable.

Other gravel bikes we’ve recently tried out.

Norco’s Search XR shares a lot of features with the Checkpoint, check out the chainstays, multiple mounts, tyre clearance etc. Have a look here.

Cannondale Super X SE is an adaption from a cyclocross race bike for the gravel, a fast bike indeed! Check it out here.

Checkpoint options?

Trek provides the Checkpoint in three models, the SL 6 for $4699 is the top-end carbon frame version with the fancy Shimano Ultegra, the SL 5 we have sells for $3699 with Shimano 105. The ALR 5 uses a is aluminium frame option for $2699.

What is a gravel bike?

A gravel bike allows you to ride on paved roads and dirt tracks. At first glance, the bike looks like a road bike . However, its wide tyres, frame geometry and components are adapted to gravel roads and forest paths. The Gravel Bike offers more comfort than a cyclocross bike and is almost as agile as a road bike. This makes it suitable for extended bikepacking adventures or weekend rides.

The advantages of a gravel bike

There are so many advantages to gravel bikes, so we’ll discuss just a few. As a cross between a road bike, mountain bike and cyclocross bike , gravel bikes are incredibly capable across rough terrain and smooth roads.

How is a gravel bike different from a road bike?

There are many similarities between a road bike and a gravel bike such as the shape of the frame and drop bars. Unlike a road bike, you are not bound to roads or paved cycle paths. Gravel bikes are some kind of adventure road bike. See a bridleway? Find out where it leads to. Like the look of that forest path? Go on - gravel adventure awaits!

Depending on the accessories, the Gravel Bike can be used as an everyday bike or for specific cycling trips. You can mount custom-fit mudguards at the mounting points to protect you from splashing water and dirt. The frame geometry of Gravel Bikes is more versatile than our competition-orientated cyclocross bikes ensuring a comfortable ride.

Are gravel bikes similar to mountain bikes?

Like mountain bikes, gravel bikes also feature wide, comfortable tyres, high-quality hydraulic disc brakes and a good range of gears for all terrain. Combined with a more upright riding position, you’ll have maximum control and stability off-road while maintaining speed on the tarmac.

Maximum power with an e-gravel bike

An e-gravel bike allows you to ride longer distances and faster speeds with less effort. Gravel bikes with electric motors offer you a dynamic riding experience and powerful support on demanding terrain.

Gravel bikes from Canyon

Canyon offers you an excellent selection of gravel bikes. The aluminium or carbon bikes have high-quality components. The groupsets are available in mechanical or electronic versions. On our Grizl, you have the option of a suspension fork.

The Canyon Grail is available with the innovative double-decker handlebar that dampens vibrations. With off-road bikes you’re safe with disc brakes. Our Grizl vs. Grail article outlines the pros and cons of both bikes so you can find the perfect gravel grinder for you.

What kind of terrain is good for Gravel Bikes?

All-Road: For fast rides on the road and on easy forest tracks. Treat yourself to an off-road excursion on your after-work ride.

Fine gravel: Low weight, optimal aerodynamics and treaded tyres. Get playful on some more exciting gravel tracks.
