A DEEPER INSIGHT INTO WHY JAEGHER
MAKES THE DIFFERENCE FOR YOU
The Jaegher Hurricane. The ultimate gravel bike, built exactly and only for you.
Crafted with bespoke agressive geometry
For unparalleled performance and bikepacking adventures
Finished with ultra-durable lacquers and outfitted with top-tier components.
THE PERFECT BLEND OF AESTHETICS
AND PERFORMANCE
Gravel-resistant lacquers
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.
Pure and exceptionally tough
However, customization is still very much a part of the experience. In fact, 95% of our gravel bike customers opt for one of our many ceramic coating colours to add a unique touch to their bike. While the majority of a Jaegher bike features brushed stainless steel, the logo, iconic Jaegher details, or your personal number are painted and oven-baked for a durable, long-lasting finish.
This ceramic coating is exceptionally tough, able to withstand scratches from branches or stone impacts.
Bespoke and exclusive
Some customers choose to extend the ceramic colour they've selected for the frame onto the fork, achieving a cohesive, streamlined look.
Others fully embrace the bespoke nature of their bike, opting for a pure frame with one or two ceramic colours, then combining this with bold wet paint finishes or personalized designs to make the fork or cockpit a standout feature.
Oh, you've got green eyes — Oh, you've got blue eyes — Oh, you've got grey eyes
Now, imagine a lacquered cockpit, seatpost, and fork in one or more vibrant wet colours, paired with the Eye of Jaegher in the shades of your choice.
And if you choose Unlimited, the possibilities are endless. Customize your fork and cockpit with wet lacquers, gradients, patterns, or even illustrations to create a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.
"There's a compelling reason why the world's most prestigious watchmakers,
including Rolex, Patek Philippe, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Audemars Piguet, IWC Schaffhausen, ...
opt for high-end stainless steel."
AD SOME EXTRA SPEED ON YOUR HURRICANE
There are even more ways to integrate stainless steel into your Hurricane's design while adding a unique touch of colour.
The Circles Gradient Design
Inspired by the circles of our logo, this innovative design adds colour to key areas: the seat post zone, dropout zone, bottom bracket, cockpit, and fork. It’s a fresh take on Jaegher’s signature style.
The Speed Design
This unique design on a stainless steel frame uses wet lacquers to create a gradient effect, starting with your chosen colour at the front and transitioning to stainless steel towards the back. The logo or call number can be left unpainted, allowing the natural beauty of stainless steel to shine through.
In this design, 40% of the bike is coloured while 60% remains stainless steel, protected by a transparent lacquer. Achieving this effect requires precision and skill, including the use of transparent varnishes—but we’ll spare you the technical details.
Of course, you can add the Speed technique to the fork, combined with the Eye of Jaegher. Alternatively, you can opt for a fully coloured fork featuring the Eye for a bold and distinctive look.
FL.S — THE SPRIT STEEL DESIGNS
When it comes to our steel series, we can keep it brief: we use wet lacquers for their rich, deep colours.
You have two distinct design options to choose from:
Fully Lacquered Design
Opt for a fully lacquered bike, with the logo and brand elements painted in a complementary colour to perfectly match your bike’s aesthetic.
The Speed Design
Combine two wet lacquer coloors to create a stunning gradient effect, starting with one colour at the front and transitioning to the second colour towards the back. The logo or call number can be lacquered in the coloor that offers the best readability.
For added personalization, you can apply the Speed technique to the fork, paired with the Eye of Jaegher for a signature touch. Alternatively, choose a fully coloured fork with the Eye for a bold and standout look.
ELEVATING GRAVEL COMFORT TO NEW HEIGHTS
Preserve unmatched comfort on your gravel bike while optimizing your pedaling efficiency.
Built for riders who crave the ultimate gravel adventure, the Tornado combines an exclusive Spirit Steel frame with comfort-focused geometry, ensuring longer rides free from pain and discomfort while maintaining exceptional performance.
Comfort Gravel Setup
At Jaegher, every gravel bike is meticulously crafted to align with your unique preferences, riding style, and strengths. Our approach ensures a personalized fit that enhances your overall experience on the trail. Gravel bikes are typically designed with a more upright posture compared to traditional road bikes, placing a stronger emphasis on comfort during long rides or rough terrain.
This upright geometry provides multiple benefits: it improves your ability to navigate sharp corners and tackle challenging obstacles while maintaining better visibility of the trail ahead. The positioning also allows your arms to act as natural shock absorbers, reducing the impact on your upper body when riding over uneven surfaces.
At Jaegher, we believe that comfort and performance go hand in hand, and our gravel bike setups are designed to ensure you experience the best of both worlds.
Clear Comparison: Key differences between the TORNADO and other models
HOLISTIC BIKE FIT
Comfort, performance or both—your choice.
The geometry of your gravel bike significantly influences your posture—and your posture, in turn, shapes how the bike performs for you. Every rider is distinct, with unique body structures, physical strengths, and personal preferences. How can a one-size-fits-all approach possibly deliver the excellence you deserve?
INCREASE YOUR COMFORT
IMPROVE YOUR PERFORMANCE
IMPROVE YOUR ENDURANCE
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 owning a meticulously 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, delivering a ride free from pain and discomfort?
That’s why Jaegher is proud to be the first bike brand to introduce the Jaegher HOLISTIC BIKEFIT®.
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 perfect harmony by taking a comprehensive, 360-degree approach to bike fitting. It's not just about finding the ideal geometry, saddle height, or handlebar position—it's about truly understanding how your body moves and responds to cycling. We assess factors such as muscle imbalances, flexibility, and riding posture to tailor the geometry and customize the fit, prioritizing your comfort and maximizing your efficiency on the bike.
But comfort goes beyond just the fit. Through a series of well-defined, targeted exercises, we address areas requiring strengthening or mobility improvements, helping you build a solid physical foundation that enhances both your performance and comfort. By focusing on the rider’s physical needs as much as the bike’s setup, this method ensures a smoother, more comfortable ride, optimizing each pedal stroke and supporting your long-term cycling goals—whether you're racing, exploring gravel roads, or embarking on long-distance rides.
With a focus on the rider’s comfort, as well as performance, the Jaegher Holistic Bikefit Program transforms your cycling experience, ensuring you ride longer, harder, and with less discomfort.
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.
In 2001, Maesschalck developed his own concept, Move To Cure, which literally translates to "Healing Through Proper Movement." Together with a team of physiotherapists, he specializes in treating complex orthopedic injuries. Often referred to as the "miracle man" (a nickname he dislikes), he works with the world's elite athletes.
His clients include AC Milan, Real Madrid, the Belgian Red Devils, An Wauters, and cycling legends such as Remco Evenepoel, Wout van Aert, and Mathieu van der Poel.
THE LIVING SPIRIT OF STEEL
Unbeatable comfort/performance ratio
Spirit steel is an exceptional choice for riders seeking a balance of comfort and performance, making it ideal for gravel bikes.
For those prioritizing even greater performance, the Hurricane offers a compelling alternative with its stainless steel tubeset. Additionally, we can customize the Hurricane’s geometry to enhance comfort, tailoring it to your specific needs.
Spirit steel — FL.S series
For many gravel riders, nothing compares to the performance and comfort of Spirit Steel. This exclusive steel tube set, custom-made for Jaegher, has quickly become a favorite among those who demand the best from their bikes. Spirit steel is renowned for its unique damping properties, which help to absorb vibrations and reduce road fatigue, providing a smoother and more comfortable ride over even the roughest terrain.
What sets Spirit Steel apart is its exceptional ability to deliver the perfect balance of performance. Unlike other materials, Spirit Steel is designed to provide just the right amount of responsiveness, allowing for precise handling without sacrificing comfort. It offers a level of compliance that is hard to match, ensuring that riders can power through gravel roads with confidence while still enjoying a smooth ride.
This steel is not just about comfort; it’s about performance that lasts. The durability and strength of Spirit Steel ensure that your bike will maintain its integrity, ride after ride, no matter the challenges of the trail. For gravel riders who value both long-term reliability and a ride that feels like it was made just for them, Spirit Steel is the ultimate choice.
Stainless steel — FL.X series
For gravel riders who prioritize performance, stainless steel is an outstanding choice. Its increased stiffness provides precise handling and efficient power transfer, translating to better acceleration and control over varied surfaces. At the same time, it still offers more comfort than carbon, thanks to its natural ability to absorb vibrations, giving riders the endurance they need for longer rides without experiencing excessive fatigue or discomfort.
One of the most significant advantages of stainless steel, especially when compared to carbon, is its durability. Unlike carbon frames, which can be prone to cracking or fracturing under extreme stress or impact, stainless steel is known for its resilience and ability to withstand the toughest conditions. There is virtually no risk of cracks, fractures, or breakage, ensuring that your bike can handle all the demands of gravel riding without compromising its integrity. Whether you're taking on a gravel race, exploring remote trails, or simply enjoying a long-distance ride, stainless steel provides the reliability and performance you can count on, ride after ride.
With its combination of performance, comfort, and unmatched durability, stainless steel is the material of choice for serious gravel riders who want a bike that will perform at the highest level, no matter the challenge.
So, why don’t we see more people ride a spirit steel or stainless steel gravel bike?
It’s a question we hear often, and the answer is simple: while Spirit Steel and Stainless Steel are exceptional and outstanding materials for bespoke 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
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.
