Trek Checkpoint SL 7 AXS Gen 3

The Trek Checkpoint SL 7 AXS Gen 3 is built for riders who want to go farther, explore deeper, and feel confident on every kind of gravel. With a lightweight OCLV carbon frame and Trek’s proven Gravel Endurance geometry, this bike delivers stability and comfort on long days while still feeling responsive when the terrain gets fast and loose.

Trek’s IsoSpeed vibration-damping technology smooths out rough surfaces, helping you stay fresher for longer—whether you're gliding over washboard gravel, rolling through potholes, or tackling multi-day bikepacking adventures. With generous tyre clearance for up to 50mm, plus loads of mounting points for bags, bottles, and gear, the Checkpoint SL 7 AXS Gen 3 is made for riders who want freedom without limits.

Shifting is buttery-smooth and fully wireless thanks to the SRAM Force AXS XPLR E1 drivetrain, giving you precise, reliable performance whether you’re climbing steep fire roads or hammering on fast flats. It’s paired with carbon wheels and a carbon seatpost, cutting weight and boosting efficiency where it matters most.

From gravel loops around Melbourne to countryside escapes and self-supported adventures, the Checkpoint SL 7 AXS Gen 3 is a premium balance of comfort, speed, and versatility—perfect for riders who want a bike that’s ready for absolutely anything.

Geometry

Sizing

How tall are you?

To measure your height, stand up straight, barefoot, with your back, heels, shoulders and head all touching a wall. While looking straight ahead, place a book or straight edge on your head and slowly push it against the wall. Your straight edge should be parallel with the floor. Mark the spot where the bottom of the book is touching the wall. The distance from the marked spot to the floor is your height.

What is your inside leg?

How to measure: Stand barefoot with your back straight and against a wall. Tuck a ruler or something that extends to the floor between your legs. Using both hands, and keeping it level, pull the ruler up into your crotch as if you were sitting on the saddle. Measure the distance from the top edge of the ruler to the ground to find your inside leg measurement. Your inside leg is very important to your final bike size so please measure carefully.
