Carbs FuelOriginal 50g Energy Gels (Box of 18)(Return to Product Page)

Carbs. Tolerable. Fair price.

My staple carb sources in summer can't deliver when it gets cold. Liquids can serve as the main source in summer with organic gummy bears or a gel to supplement. In winter, not enough liquid gets consumed to deliver the 60-90 grams I need per hour on hard days, and both the gummy bears and gels get too firm. These being liquid rather than gel goes down easily in the cold. I love the taste, and also that no highly unwanted artificial stuff has been added. 50 grams at once is no joke so I won't take one unless I've already been doing high intensity and desire to continue to have maximum energy available for sprints until the very end of the ride.

Others may appreciate the taste but it didn't sit well with me. A weird sugary taste is the best way to describe it. NOTE: Pallettes vary so it may not work with mine and be fine for you. The size is too big for racing because it is a lot to choke down. The size is great for training. Overall not bad and a decent value for the size.

On the bike fuel isn't cheap but these are reasonably priced. I like these because they are 50G which is more than most others so i don't need to carry as many. CARBS is also more liquid than the gu type gels so it's way easier to consume verses the sticky paste that the others are. The flavor is neutral which I don't mind, but if you need a flavor then maybe not for you.

I really like the Carbs gels. 200 calories and 50g carbs per gel, and all for only $2 bucks/gel. The taste is fairly neutral, which is nice, and they work great. Definitely would recommend these to others!

Easy to ingest and definitely the most cost-effective solution for high carb intake that I've seen on the market so far. My go-to for quick carb intake before a race or hard ride well as during a race or hard ride. Makes hitting carb goals very easy!

The Carbs gels are the perfect consistency that I've been looking for. The "gel" has a more liquid type consistency so its easier to empty a packet into your mouth while pedaling and its easier to swallow. These gels are easy on my stomach and I do not get sick of the taste. I'm supplementing these with a carb mixture in my bottle for a 100g / hr consumption on my hard four hour rides.

50 grams of carbs for 1.50 is amazing it's a great gel one of my favorites

In addition to training rides, I recently used Carbs Fuel gels for a 16 hour overnight race. I consumed one 50g gel and 50g of homemade drink mix every hour and no solid foods. I felt strong throughout, and experienced *zero* gastrointestinal discomfort! Additionally, the neutral flavor made it easy to put down hour after hour. And all for a price that doesn't make me cringe :D

Initial taste is fine, but it is quickly overwhelmed by a very bad aftertaste.

Train with it. U will carry less gels. Price you can't beat for now.

Light taste, easy on the gut, 50 gr of carb!
