Tires: Tubeless setup Panaracer Gravelkings in 38c
Wheels: Paradigm comp 700c, 25mm internal width.
Frame and seat post: Fancy carbon (500 series OCLV). Isospeed suspension at the intersection between the seatpost tube and the frame. The frame has a small compartment where you could put spare parts and for easy access to cables going through the frame. The frame is protected by rubber rock guards on the underside and transparent frame protection film in other places.
Groupset: Sram Force Axs Etap (Top of the range electronic, wireless shifting 1x12 with a huge range).
Gearing: Sram Eagle 10-50 XX1 (top of the range) with a 44t front sprocket. No need for 2x up front unless you are doing a whole lot of fast paced group rides. This gearing means that with a cadence of 90 rpm, you are doing 53 km/h in top gear.
Extras: Spare chain (X01, 12 speed), spare derailleur hanger.
Gearing is customizable through an app, and the rear wheel position can be adjusted back and forth by about 1 cm to alter the handling characteristics. The latest Checkpoint does not have this.
This is a lively and super lightweight gravel bike at 8.7 kg.
