Trek Checkpoint ALR 5 Gen 3
Trek / Checkpoint
Go farther. Take the long way home.
Checkpoint ALR 5 is an aluminum gravel bike built for riders who want to go farther, faster. Its modern endurance geometry pairs with a carbon fork for road-smoothing comfort, while clearance for up to 50mm tires adds traction and confidence on rough terrain. A SRAM Apex XPLR 12-speed drivetrain, hydraulic disc brakes, Tubeless Ready Bontrager Paradigm wheels, and plenty of mounts for bags and gear make it ready for big adventures.
Based on the bike's size chart. Your complimentary baseline fit in store dials in the rest.

Questions are welcome. No pressure, no bike jargon required.
The ride, not just the specs
There is a certain kind of freedom that starts when the pavement ends. The Checkpoint was built for exactly that feeling: comfortable enough to stay out longer, capable enough to keep going, and ready to carry what matters.
We love bikes that invite you to say yes to the extra mile. This is one of them.
What makes it special
The new Checkpoint ALR is equipped to carry everything you need with mounts on the frame and fork for front and rear racks, fenders, and Adventure Top Tube, Frame, and Triangle Bags. Plus, the new frame was optimized to fit extra hydration in addition to all your bags.
Designed with Gravel Endurance geometry with a higher stack and shorter reach for improved comfort and control on long days in the saddle.
Designed with 50mm (or 29 x 2.0)* tire clearance for more grip and comfort on challenging terrain.*As measured
