Gravel and Cyclocross

The durable and simple 1x12 SRAM Apex XPLR drivetrain shifts cleanly and provides a huge gear range.

Checkpoint ALR 5 is the best value gravel bike in the lineup. It's a high-quality build that will hold up for long, rugged miles on pavement, dirt, and even the most treacherous gravel roads.

You expect to get a lot for your hard-earned dollar, including quality, versatility, durability, and a ridiculous amount of fun. The Checkpoint ALR 5 AXS features a stout aluminum frame with progressive geometry that's stable at speed and efficient when you're grinding up a climb, hidden cables that won't interfere with bags, rack and fender mounts and integrated frame bag mounts, a 1x 12-Speed AXS Wireless SRAM drivetrain with plenty of lower gears for grinding up hills or through rough gravel and hydraulic disc brakes for all-condition stopping power.
