HIGH LEVEL PERFORMANCE
Jaegher Performance review
An insight to world’s most functional, bespoke design.
The perfect pedal stroke, stiffness of steel, perfect posture.
Welcome to high level performance on gravel and rough terrain.
At Jaegher, we craft your gravel bike based on your preferences and strengths.
Typically, gravel bikes are designed with a more upright posture than road bikes, prioritizing comfort.
This setup makes it easier to navigate corners and obstacles while offering better visibility of the trail. Your arms act as shock absorbers, and it’s simpler to stand out of the saddle when needed.
That said, we often have customers who prioritize performance above all. Increasingly, riders are participating in competitions like [insert example], and their technical expertise drives them to choose a more aerodynamic position.
Take Tim Merlier with his Hurricane Sandstorm as an example. His lower, more aerodynamic posture lets him slice through the wind with ease on long stretches of beach.

THE GEOMETRY OF YOUR GRAVEL BIKE
DETERMINES YOUR POSTURE
Performance or comfort—your choice.
The geometry of your gravel bike determines your posture. How can a standard size bring forth excellence?
Peak performance and comfort by calculating and crafting to your measurements.
For a gravel bike to truly excel, it must align perfectly with its motor: the rider. Bike and rider should function as one seamless entity. What’s the point of having a perfectly crafted bike if the motor isn’t performing at its peak? And what’s the point of a powerful motor if the bike doesn’t feel like an extension of the rider?
That’s why Jaegher is the first bike brand to introduce the HOLISTIC BIKEFIT.
Together with Gilles Van Kerckhove and Lieven Maerschalk (*) we’ve developed the Holistic Bikefit approach.
Your bike is meticulously designed from the ground up, tailored to your needs with minute adjustments to enhance your performance. At the same time, you undergo a comprehensive assessment to identify your strengths and address any limitations.
These insights influence not only the bike’s geometry and construction but also a set of exercises tailored to you. These exercises might help you:
- Improve your balance
- Achieve a more aerodynamic posture, or
- Correct inefficiencies, like a knee drifting outward during each pedal stroke, which can reduce wattage output.
- Etc
The goal is to maximize every pedal stroke while ensuring you remain free of discomfort or strain.
Together with Lieven Maerschalk (*) and Gilles Van Kerckhove we’ve developed this approach.
This holistic method ensures that both you and your bike are in optimal harmony by taking a 360-degree approach to bike fitting. It’s not just about determining the perfect geometry, saddle height, or handlebar position—it's about understanding how your body moves and reacts to cycling. We assess factors like muscle imbalances, flexibility, and riding posture to determine the geometry and customize the fit to maximize your efficiency on the bike.
But the process doesn't end with the bike fit. Through a series of targeted, well-defined exercises, we address areas in need of strengthening or mobility improvement, helping you build a solid physical foundation for enhanced performance. By focusing on both the rider and the bike, this method unlocks a smoother, more powerful ride, optimizing each pedal stroke and supporting your long-term cycling goals—whether you're racing, exploring gravel roads, or enjoying long-distance rides.
With a focus on the whole rider, not just the bike, the Jaegher Holistic Bikefit Program elevates your cycling experience to its highest potential
The goal is to maximize every pedal stroke while ensuring you remain free of discomfort or strain.
Some examples of exercises that can help you perform better:
- Enhance your balance and stability
- Achieve a more aerodynamic riding posture
- Increase core strength for improved stability and power transfer
- Improve hip flexibility for a smoother pedal stroke
- Improve proprioception and coordination for more efficient pedal mechanics
- Correct movement inefficiencies: f.e.a knee drifting outward with each pedal stroke, which can reduce power output.

NOTHING BEATS
STAINLESS STEEL
Best performance /comfort ratio
Stainless steel is an outstanding material for those seeking high performance. It offers the perfect balance between performance and comfort.
Stainless steel is stiffer than titanium, yet more comfortable than carbon. For gravel riders, it’s particularly advantageous—virtually no risk of cracks, fractures, or breaking carbon. Plus, it’s immune to lasting damage from stone chips.
So, why don’t more people ride stainless steel bikes?
This is a question we hear often. The answer is simple: while stainless steel is fantastic for bicycles, it’s incredibly time-intensive to work with. Stainless steel is un forgivable. Only the most skilled welders can handle it, as everything needs to be absolutely precise. Additionally, the hardness of stainless steel causes machines to wear out five times faster than when working with other materials, making it a challenge to craft perfectly.
So, why don’t more people ride stainless steel bikes? It’s a question we hear often, and the answer is simple: while stainless steel is an exceptional and outstanding material for building gravel and race cycles, it’s notoriously challenging to work with. Stainless steel is unforgiving—only the most skilled welders can master it, as every detail must be executed with absolute precision. Additionally, its hardness accelerates wear on machines, causing them to deteriorate up to five times faster than when working with other materials, making the crafting process even more demanding
EFFORTLESS SPEED
UNBEATABLE PERFORMANCE-
COMFORT RATIO
Jaegher finest framesets, the FL.X series, are handcrafted out of exclusively for Jaegher made Columbus XCr tubes. All what’s great about cycling comes together in this timeless masterpiece. Stiffness meets responsive characteristics, meets outstanding vibration absorbing quality, meets lightweight, meets pure aesthetics. This bespoke, handcrafted, and welded in a second to none geometry results in a frameset with maximum dynamic efficiency and an unbeatable performance-comfort ratio.
The unique feel of steel is difficult to translate into statistics and numbers. The weight/stiffness ratio of our FL.X frame is superior than titanium or aluminium while it’s vibration absorbing quality beats easily those from carbon or aluminum.
The frame — material and geometry — sets the standard for excellence in cycling.
ALSO THE AESTHETICS
ARE PERFORMANT
Lacquers against gravel
Additionally, the aesthetics are just as performance-driven. What’s more beautiful than a pure stainless steel gravel bike? Stainless steel doesn't require paint—its unpainted finish is not only visually striking but also more resistant to cosmetic damage like paint chips.
