Four great reasons to buy your bike from Sigma Sports
Sigma Sports has one objective - to help you find your perfect bike. Our friendly, knowledgeable staff ask you a series of questions to understand what type of rider you are and the type of riding you do. We can then identify the style of bike that best suits your needs.
Riding a bike that fits you perfectly will help keep you injury-free and ensure you enjoy riding further for longer in total comfort. We check your measurements on a jig to ensure your optimal set-up.
When you collect your new bike we'll double-check your position and make any micro-adjustments if required. We'll also discuss the controls on your bike as well as maintenance tips.

Trek Checkpoint SL 6 Carbon Gravel Bike 2019
The Trek Checkpoint SL6 Carbon Gravel Bike is an adventure bike designed to take on all comers. Whether it's a self-supported gravel race across the American wilderness or just a day of pinning corners on your favourite trail, this bike is more than a match for whatever the ride can throw at it.
The centrepiece of the Checkpoint SL6 is a carbon frameset, with tube profiles specifically shaped to encourage vertical compliance whilst keeping weight featherlight. Where this frame stands out, however, is the plethora of Trek-patented technologies that turn it from your average gravel-shredder into a truly exceptional all-road machine. The innovative IsoSpeed Decoupler unit, for example, allows the seat tube to flex independently of the rest of the bike, smoothing out the vibrations of the road whilst retaining the rigidity and stiffness of a traditional frame.
Meanwhile, Stranglehold dropouts allow you to change the bike's effective wheelbase and fine-tune the geometry to exactly what the terrain requires, whether that be a long, steady cruiser or a short, whippy trail bike. Elsewhere, Trek's Control Freak technology helps keep cable routing packaged away internally, protecting the cables from the rigours of riding and giving the bike a clean, uncluttered aesthetic.
With Shimano's premium Ultegra groupset providing the drivetrain and shifting, and hydraulic disc brakes lending incredible stopping power in any weather conditions, this is a bike you can rely on mile after mile. Tubeless-ready Bontrager wheels and some incredibly versatile Schwalbe G-One clincher tyres help complete this remarkably adaptable bike.
Whether you want a tough bikepacking steed, a year-round do-everything adventure bike, or even the most luxurious commuter on the planet, the Trek Checkpoint SL6 is a perfect choice.

- Isospeed decoupler provides unparalleled rider comfort
