Product Overview
Checkpoint ALR 5 Driftless is a custom-painted, high-quality gravel bike that will hold up for long, rugged miles on pavement, dirt, and even the most treacherous gravel roads. A wealth of features like nimble-yet-stable progressive geometry, loads of mounts, plus a GRX drivetrain make it easy to customize for your kind of adventure.
- All-new progressive geometry is quick and nimble yet keeps you stable and in control on fast, choppy descents
- The gorgeous paint scheme and topo map pattern evoke the rugged, hilly escape of Wisconsin’s driftless region—an area untouched by terrain-flattening glaciers
- Comes kitted out with a custom Bontrager frame bag that features the same topo map design as your Checkpoint!
- This bike is exceedingly versatile and suited to a wide variety of ride styles, including gravel rides, bikepacking, and daily commutes
- Integrated frame bag mounts and rack and fender mounts make it easy to carry gear and water
