Better performance, more comfort.
A revolutionary approach to bike fitting, guided by top experts:

the jaegher bikefit
The Jaegher Bikefit is a completely new approach to the traditional bike fit. It is the foundation for building your Jaegher, and it refines your body through targeted exercises that improve both performance and comfort.
A Jaegher is never built from standard formulas. It is a bicycle for connoisseurs, riders who demand more than mass production could ever deliver. The fit lays the groundwork for your ultimate road or gravel bike, while aligning your body with custom exercises that lift both your power and your efficiency.
why most bike fits fall short
Your body should not adapt to the bike. The bike should be built around your body. That is the opposite of how most fits work.
Do most bike fits take your weak points, pain zones, and flexibility into account? Do they analyse your strength, or identify which areas could improve through targeted exercises? Is your body in balance, or does one side need extra attention?
In practice, you are usually handed an email or a single sheet of paper filled with numbers and graphs. At the bike shop you are matched with a standard frame. Maybe the saddle goes up slightly, or a spacer is added under the handlebar. That bike needs to move. It has to make room for next season's stock.
Your body ends up adapting to the bike, and there is rarely a structured plan to strengthen your weaker links or address what actually causes the problem.
rider and engine as one
What is the point of a perfectly built bicycle if the engine is not performing at its peak? And what is a powerful engine worth if the bike does not feel like a natural extension of the rider? That is why Jaegher developed the Jaegher Bikefit, where bicycle and rider are tuned to work as one.
01 · positioning
Two riders with the same height, weight, and proportions still do not need the same bike. Our physiotherapist analyses muscular imbalances, flexibility, and riding posture to design a bicycle that maximises your efficiency, power, and comfort.
- Pain and symptom analysis
- Flexibility assessment
- Full physical screening
- Muscle strength analysis
- Osteopathic evaluation of the spine
- Sacroiliac joint assessment
- Joint mobility testing
- Crank length determination
- Optional neurological examination
02 · geometry
We do not simply build a bike from your measurements. We create geometry tailored to your body, your power, and your riding style. That is the difference between a bike that fits and a bike that becomes an extension of you. Your Jaegher is tuned not just to your dimensions, but to your unique riding DNA.
When we determine your optimal frame geometry, we consider:
- Video analysis of your current riding position
- Video analysis of the adjusted position
- Cleat positioning and alignment
- Evaluation of the new position, including climbing and descending
- Saddle testing with targeted advice
- Pedal fitting and recommendations, including axle length
- Optimal placement of shifter levers
03 · screening
At the heart of the process is a full biomechanical movement screening. Using motion analysis and functional testing, we map how you actually move on the bike. Every weak point is identified, so we can correct inefficiencies and lift your performance.
- Full biomechanical screening
- Personalised corrective exercises
- Every pedal stroke becomes smoother
- Every effort feels more powerful
- Comfort is noticeably increased
improve your performance
- Improve balance and stability
- Create a more aerodynamic riding position
- Increase core stability for better power transfer
- Enhance hip mobility for a smoother pedal stroke
- Optimise coordination and proprioception for a more efficient technique
- Correct movement inefficiencies, such as a knee that bows outward with every pedal stroke and costs you power
