OVERVIEW
The Checkmate SLR 7 AXS is a carbon gravel race bike built to toe the line and kick up dust on the long and rough road. To deliver the performance that you crave on race day, the Checkmate combines a lightweight aero design with IsoSpeed and new Gravel Race geometry that keeps you poised for the attack without eating up your energy.

It's right for you if...
You want to test your mettle at gravel racing's most epic events. You need a bike that delivers aerodynamics and light weight, but not at the cost of your comfort. Performance matters to you, and you want workhorse components that you can trust, like a SRAM Force XPLR AXS wireless electronic drivetrain.
The tech you get
A lightweight and aerodynamic 800 Series OCLV Carbon frame with IsoSpeed comfort technology and plenty of mounts to carry race-day essentials. Bontrager Aeolus Pro 3V carbon wheels and a Trek Aero RSL carbon bar/stem that keep your ride light and nimble. Plus, a SRAM Force XPLR AXS D2 drivetrain with wireless shifting that's built for rougher roads.
The final word
If gravel race days are in your future, reach for Checkmate SLR 7 AXS. This lightweight gravel race rig is built to kick up dust on the long road, and deliver aero gains and comfort on the way. It combines new Gravel Race geometry with comfort-focused features, like IsoSpeed vibration-damping tech, to keep you at your prime from start to finish line.
Why you'll love it
You're after a gravel bike that's made to soar straight off the starting line with Full System Foil aero tube shapes and an aero-yet-ergonomic one-piece bar/stem
Comfort isn't kicked to the side, thanks to road-smoothing IsoSpeed tech and clearance room for tyres up to 45 mm wide (as measured)
New Gravel Race geometry keeps you tucked out of the wind and poised for the attack without compromising the fit you need for comfort through long miles
A premium, ultra-light 800 Series OCLV Carbon frame helps you save energy by reducing road chatter
It comes equipped with plenty of mounts to add Adventure Bags and carry all your race-day essentials.
