Why height alone is not enough
Riders with the same height can need different sizes because inseam, torso length, flexibility, and preferred handling differ.
Checkpoint sizing should leave enough standover for mixed terrain and dismounts.
When between sizes, the smaller Checkpoint can feel easier to handle on rough gravel.

FAQ
Short answers for Trek Checkpoint SL 5 sizing.
Should I size down on a Trek Checkpoint?
Size down only when you are between sizes and want more clearance or quicker handling; do not size down if reach becomes cramped.
Is Trek Checkpoint sizing the same as road sizing?
No. Gravel fit includes clearance, stability, and control, so compare standover, stack, and reach instead of copying a road-bike label.
