Gravel / Gravé / Gnarmac / Groad / ATB

In developing the new Checkpoint, Trek identified typical users of gravel and adventure bikes, from someone who rides gravel to escape traffic and appreciates the versatility, to cyclists not interested in road bikes (mountain bikers, mainly) and the new breed of “ultra-endurance” cyclists flocking to events like the Transcontinental Race. And what Trek has developed is a bike that looks to take into account the many different applications that gravel bikes are being used for, from commuting and touring to short distance gravel rides and multi-day all-terrain epics, with a versatile and adaptable bike.

Who exactly is going to do TCR on a topper?

Pleased to see the aluminium ones have normal posts by the look of it
