Trek Checkpoint SL 6 AXS Gen 3 Gravel Bike - Era White/Buff Beige
The Trek Checkpoint SL 6 AXS Gen 3 is built for riders who crave adventure without compromise. With its lightweight OCLV Carbon frame and comfort-focused Gravel Endurance geometry, this gravel bike is designed to go the distance—whether you’re exploring backroads, tackling all-day bikepacking trips, or taking on your local gravel race.
Thanks to Trek’s innovative IsoSpeed technology, the Checkpoint SL 6 smooths out rough terrain by absorbing road chatter and vibrations, keeping you fresher for longer. Generous tyre clearance (up to 50mm) and multiple mounting points on the frame and fork give you the flexibility to run wide rubber and carry all the gear you need for epic rides.
Shifting is handled by the SRAM Rival AXS eTap 13-speed wireless groupset, offering crisp, reliable performance with the simplicity of electronic precision. Paired with powerful hydraulic disc brakes, you’ll feel confident no matter where the gravel takes you.
Whether it’s your first gravel bike or an upgrade to something truly capable, the Trek Checkpoint SL 6 AXS Gen 3 blends speed, comfort, and versatility—perfect for riders who want to ride further, faster, and with more freedom.

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 yo u 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.
