Crafted for riders seeking the pinnacle of road cycling, the Phoenix and Ascender both feature bespoke stainless steel frames and aggressive geometry. Engineered for unmatched performance, these bikes elevate every ride into an extraordinary experience.
THE SECRET LIES IN THE TRANSLATION
At Jaegher, we build your road bike to match your unique preferences and strengths, whether you choose the FL.X Phoenix or the FL.X Ascender. Both models are designed to deliver the level of performance you desire, with the key lying in precision geometry.
Jaegher bikes are renowned for their tailor-made geometry, allowing riders to balance performance with comfort. When configured with an aggressive geometry, a Jaegher bike becomes a precision tool for speed-focused cyclists. Here’s a glimpse on how our approach ties into the aggressive geometry concept:
Jaegher focuses on custom frame-building, ensuring that even the most aggressive setups are meticulously tailored to your unique body dimensions. For example:
> The handlebar drop can be designed for a deep aero tuck without overstraining your flexibility.
> A longer reach can be implemented to optimize your weight distribution and sprinting power.
Jaegher frames, particularly models like the FL.X Phoenix and FL.X Ascender, feature:
> A steep head tube angle for sharp, precise steering—ideal for racing or navigating twisty descents.
> A stiff bottom bracket, tailored tubes and even adapted 3D-printed parts for the FL.X Phoenix ensure efficient power transfer.
We can incorporate a shorter wheelbase into your build to enhance agility. This is carefully balanced with frame stiffness and ride comfort to ensure stability, even at high speeds.
While aggressive geometries are inherently less forgiving, Jaegher’s stainless steel frames absorb vibrations better than its carbon counterparts. This results in a smoother ride, even in a racing position. Additionally, Jaegher holistically integrates bike fitting principles, ensuring that your muscles work in harmony to support your aggressive riding position.

HOLISTIC BIKE FIT
Performance, comfort or both—your choice.
The geometry of your road bike significantly influences your posture—and your posture, in turn, determines 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?
11 tubes and parts each perfectly measured, cut and mitered for you.
IMPROVE YOUR PERFORMANCE
INCREASE YOUR COMFORT
IMPROVE YOUR ENDURANCE
For a road 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 Jaegher HOLISTIC BIKEFIT®.
Together with Lieven Maesschalk (*) and Gilles Van Kerckvoorde we 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 how our Holistic Bikefit Program 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: e.g. 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 best 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.

NOTHING BEATS
STAINLESS STEEL
Unbeatable performance/comfort ratio
Stainless steel is an outstanding material for those seeking high performance. It offers the perfect balance between performance and comfort.
Jaegher and Columbus Italia developed an exclusive high performance stainless steel tube set.
Stainless steel versus carbon and titanium.
Stainless steel is stiffer than titanium, yet more comfortable than carbon.
So, why don’t we see more people ride a stainless steel road bike?
It’s a question we often get, and the answer is simple: while stainless steel is an exceptional and outstanding material 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. Every weld must be executed with flawless precision. Additionally, Its remarkable hardness also takes a toll on machinery, causing wear and tear up to five times faster than with other materials, rendering the crafting process even more demanding.
01 — PERFORMANCE
Stainless steel frames offer the perfect balance of stiffness and compliance, providing responsive handling and a smooth ride, enhancing overall performance.
02 — COMFORT
Stainless steel's natural compliance offers a more comfortable ride, reducing fatigue also on long distance rides.
03 — ANTI-CORROSION
Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion ensures the frame's longevity in diverse weather conditions.
04 — NO PAINT DAMAGE
Stainless steel frames are resistant to lacquer damage, as they require no paint or lacquer coatings. Scratches and small dents can easily be removed with some polishing.
05 — BIKEPACKING
Stainless steel frames can easily handle extra weight, travel bags and gear, making them the preferred choice for ultra riders.
06 — REPAIRABILITY
Carbon frames are prone to fractures sustained in crashes, rendering them unusable. In contrast, stainless steel frames are highly resilient and, if damaged, can be easily repaired, especially when left unpainted.
07 — DURABILITY
Stainless steel frames are ultra-durable and eco-friendly, while carbon fiber's limited recyclability impacts its environmental sustainability.
08 — AESTHETICS
Stainless steel frames boast a timeless, stylish look with polished or brushed finishes, perfect for cyclists seeking a distinctive appearance.
Jaegher finest framesets, the FL.X series, are handcrafted out of Columbus XCr tubes, exclusively made for Jaegher. All that is 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-to-comfort ratio.
The unique feel of steel is difficult to translate into statistics and numbers. The weight-to-stiffness ratio of our FL.X frames is superior to titanium or aluminium, while its vibration absorbing quality easily beats carbon or aluminium.
The frame — material and geometry — sets the standard for excellence in cycling.
THE PERFECT BLEND OF AESTHETICS
AND PERFORMANCE
Choose between exclusive colours and lacquer techniques
Additionally, the aesthetics are just as performance-driven. There’s nothing more striking than pure stainless steel and it becomes even more breathtaking when paired with our special transparent varnishes or delicate layers of colour and gradient designs. No other material can achieve such a stunning, timeless look. Here’s a brief overview of the differences between the FL.X Phoenix and the FL.X Ascender, as well as their design possibilities.
FL.X Phoenix design
The FL.X Phoenix boasts a distinctive, recognizable design, available in five exclusive Jaegher gradients and golden eyes on the fork. For those seeking an added touch of individuality, a personalized call number is also possible.
FL.X Ascender design
> Pure and exceptionally tough
Customization remains very much a part of the experience though. In fact 50% of our FL.X Ascender 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 scuffs and scratches from road debris.
Some customers choose to extend the subtle colours they've selected for the frame with bold wet paint finishes or personalized designs to make the fork or cockpit a standout feature.
> The Fading Circles 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—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.
