Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.

The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

We estimate this will be ready for despatch to you or collection via Click & Collect on Undetermined

Trek Checkpoint SL 7 AXS Graven Bike in Dark Red/Carbon Red Smoke Splatter

Season:2026

Brand:Trek

Code:55097RED

Checkpoint SL 7 AXS Gen 3 is a carbon gravel bike built to explore the beyond.

Its lightweight carbon frame is designed with a Gravel Endurance geometry, tons of mounts, and clearance for up to 50mm tires (as measured). Plus, IsoSpeed comfort tech helps soak up jarring vibrations so you can float over chatter and potholes. It's decked out with upgrades where you want them most, like carbon wheels and seat post, and a wireless SRAM Force AXS XPLR E1 drivetrain.

Features:

  • Checkpoint's Gravel Endurance geometry lets you sit higher up and features a shorter reach to keep you comfortable on all-day gravel adventures, light singletrack, bikepacking trips, and more
  • Road-smoothing IsoSpeed comfort tech soaks up vibration from rough surfaces to keep you feeling fresher longer
  • You get upgrades that matter – like the carbon Bontrager Aeolus Elite 35V wheels and SRAM Force AXS E1 wireless electronic 13-speed drivetrain
  • Clearance for 50mm tires (as measured) means you can add extra traction and cushion for rowdy roads and stretches of singletrack
  • You can haul it all with large internal frame storage and mounts galore on the frame and fork for hydration, front and rear racks, fenders, and Adventure Bags that were designed to perfectly fit Checkpoint
