Trek Checkpoint ALR 5 Gravel Bike 2026
Adventure-ready performance with upgraded spec and ultimate versatility
The 2026 Trek Checkpoint ALR 5 is a premium aluminium gravel bike designed for riders who want to roam far off the beaten path. Built around a robust 300 Series Alpha Aluminium frame and a smooth-riding carbon fork, this bike blends all-road comfort with serious off-road capability. Whether you’re chasing adventure, commuting with confidence or loading up for a weekend of bikepacking, the Checkpoint ALR 5 is ready to take you there.
This latest model features Trek’s updated endurance geometry for long-mile comfort and confident handling on rough terrain. With massive 50 mm tyre clearance, it offers all the grip and cushioning you need when the tarmac ends. The bike comes equipped with 12-speed SRAM Apex XPLR shifting for crisp, reliable gear changes, and powerful hydraulic disc brakes for control on any surface. Tubeless Ready Bontrager Paradigm wheels and Girona Pro tyres ensure smoother, more puncture-resistant rides straight out of the box. Ample mounting points throughout the frame and fork make it easy to carry everything you need for extended tours or daily errands.
