The Checkpoint SL 5 is a carbon gravel bike made for epic adventures
It's built with lightweight OCLV Carbon, a 2x12 Shimano GRX drivetrain, terrain-smoothing damped IsoSpeed, nimble yet stable progressive geometry, internal storage and loads of mounts. All of that adds up to a rad gravel bike capable of crushing the longest, roughest rides and the most ambitious bikepacking trips.
It's right for you if...
Chamois or cut-off shorts, bikepacking trip or brutal day of gravel racing – you're going to ride far and have a great time. You want a bike that's both fast and comfortable, and you want endless options for loading up gear and heading to gravel races and on everyday adventures.
The tech you get
A 500 Series OCLV Carbon frame with damped rear IsoSpeed and carbon armour, progressive geometry that's stable at speed and efficient when you're grinding up a climb, internal frame storage, hidden cables that won't interfere with bags and integrated frame, fork, rack and mudguard mounts. Plus, a carbon fork, a 2x12 Shimano GRX drivetrain with lower gears for grinding up hills or through rough gravel and Paradigm SL wheels. You can even run a dropper post to get low on long descents.
Why you'll love it
The final word
Light, fast, comfortable. The Checkpoint SL 5 gives you the unmatched ride quality of an OCLV Carbon frame with IsoSpeed and gravel-specific geometry, plus internal storage and a drivetrain built for rough terrain.

Please note that our specifications may be impacted by manufacturer component substitution changes caused by high global demand for bikes and resulting supply chain issues in the bike industry. We recommend confirming the specifications with your local Evo Cycles showroom if you have any questions.
Bike Weight: Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on frame size, finish, hardware and accessories. The most accurate way to determine any bike's weight is to have your local showroom weigh it for you.
