The mixed-surface miles out toward the KVR and along the Okanagan Rail Trail are exactly the kind of terrain the Checkmate SLR 9 was built to race. Trek's lightest gravel bike ever, it combines an aerodynamic 800 Series OCLV Carbon frame with IsoSpeed road-smoothing technology and Gravel Race geometry, so you stay fast and tucked out of the wind without giving up comfort over rough roads — all driven by SRAM's wireless RED XPLR AXS drivetrain.


KEY FEATURES	Frame: 800 Series OCLV Carbon frame with IsoSpeed vibration-damping technology, hidden fender mounts, integrated frame bag mounts, and invisible cable routing, paired with a full carbon Checkmate SLR fork Drivetrain: SRAM RED XPLR eTap AXS wireless electronic shifting, 13-speed, SRAM RED XPLR power meter crank (42T), SRAM XG-1391 10-46T cassette Cockpit: Trek Aero RSL integrated OCLV Carbon bar/stem in a Race Fit shape, KVF aero carbon seatpost, and an Aeolus RSL carbon-railed saddle Standout feature: Full System Foil aero tube shapes with an integrated one-piece bar/stem for genuine aero gains on a gravel race bike
WHO IS THIS FOR?	This bike suits a competitive gravel racer who wants the lightest, most aerodynamic bike available for events that mix fast dirt roads with sections like the KVR corridor, where speed and comfort both matter over long distances. They'll appreciate the wireless RED XPLR AXS shifting, the wide 45mm tyre clearance for rougher terrain, and IsoSpeed compliance that keeps them fresh from mile 10 to 200. Our team at Fresh Air will help you find the right fit in-store at both Kelowna locations. Stop by to work with one of our experienced staff members, or call 250-763-3425.
HOW TO SET UP	Our team can dial in your contact points — saddle height, reach, and cleat alignment — for the Checkmate's Race Fit position, set tyre pressure appropriate for the mix of gravel and pavement you're racing or riding, and pair your SRAM AXS app for shift customization and firmware updates. We can also help fit frame bags and Adventure Bags using the integrated mounts for longer race-day or bikepacking setups. Drop into Fresh Air Pandosy (555 Groves Ave) or Fresh Air Dilworth (1656 Dilworth Drive), or book an appointment online.
FAQ	Q1: What size Trek Checkmate SLR 9 do I need? The Checkmate SLR 9 comes in six sizes — XS, S, M, ML, L, and XL — built on Trek's new Gravel Race geometry, with crank length, cockpit dimensions, and seatpost length scaled to each size. General sizing follows your height and inseam, but the best way to confirm your size is an in-person fit — our team at either Kelowna location can get you set up correctly. Q2: What tyre width and clearance does the Checkmate SLR 9 support? The Checkmate SLR 9 ships with 700x38mm Bontrager Girona RSL GR tyres and has clearance up to 45mm (as measured) without fenders, giving you room to size up for rougher terrain like the KVR corridor while keeping the bike fast on smoother gravel. Q3: Is the Checkmate SLR 9 right for racing the KVR or Okanagan Rail Trail? Yes — with wide tyre clearance, IsoSpeed compliance, and an aero, race-focused frame, the Checkmate SLR 9 is built for exactly this kind of mixed-surface racing and fast touring on routes like the KVR and Okanagan Rail Trail.
