Trek Checkpoint AL 4 Mens Gravel Bike 2019 - Blue

Season:2019

Brand:Trek

Code:249712019BattleshipBLU

Beeline: Trek Checkpoint AL 4 is a great all round road gravel bike, capable on road and on some rough stuff, making it highly versatile with road bike performance.

The frame is made from Trek's Alpha 200 Series Aluminium with a carbon fork to increase ride quality and reducing weight. Based along the lines of a cyclo cross bike, the Checkpoint gravel bike has a comfortable riding position similar to endurance road bikes with plenty of room on the fork and stays to run wide knobbly tyres should you desire, for off road grip.

This AL 4 is the model up from the AL 3 and is equipped with higher grade components; Shimano Tiagra 10 Speed shifters feature along with a compact chainset for a wide range of 20 gears aided by the wide range 11-32 cassette. The brakes are also upgraded to Shimano hydraulic disc brakes for more powerful braking than the mechanical disc brakes on the AL 3.

The Bontrager wheels are tubeless ready and come equipped with Bontrager R1 Hardcase 32mm tyres, but can run up to 38mm tyres.

The Checkpoint AL 4 is a versatile bike that can be used as a commuter, adventure or touring bike, suitable for light off road riding and on the road, and looks good too!

Trek: Checkpoint AL 4 is an ideal entry point to the world of gravel riding. It's built with a lightweight aluminium frame and a durable parts group that won't quit on you as your skills advance. Plus, this gravel bike has exceptional versatility. Extra mounts make it easy to add bags and racks for daily commutes and touring.

It's right for you if....Your idea of the perfect ride includes chasing the sunlight through a car-free landscape on a long dirt road. You ride for the experience of it, but you also need your bike to have the versatility to take on city commutes and daily around-town rides.

The tech you get: A 200 Series Alpha Aluminium frame with massive tyre clearance, a carbon disc fork, 12 mm thru axles, a 2x10 Shimano Tiagra drivetrain, mudguard and rack mounts, Shimano hydraulic disc brakes for all-weather stopping power, Tubeless Ready wheels and 700x32 Bontrager R1 Hard-Case Lite tyres.

The final word: If you're looking for adventure off the beaten path without breaking the bank, Checkpoint AL 4 is a great choice. This value-minded ride is built for epic gravel rides, but it's equally at home on city streets, your daily commute and more!

Why you'll love it: 

  • This bike is exceedingly versatile and suited to a wide variety of riding styles, including gravel rides, bikepacking and daily commutes
  • Massive tyre clearance means you can use tyres up to 38c for extra traction and stability in any condition
  • Mounts on the seat tube and both sides of the down tube make it easy to carry extra gear and water
  • Internal routing protects your cables, even when the gravel gets muddy
