The Checkmate SLR 9 AXS is our fastest and lightest gravel race bike, built to chase podiums down rowdy roads. It combines a lightweight aero design with IsoSpeed road-smoothing tech and new Gravel Race geometry that keeps you poised for the attack without eating up your energy. To keep you at the front of the pack, it’s equipped with top-tier parts, like carbon wheels and SRAM’s latest ergonomic RED AXS XPLR wireless drivetrain.
