Love them

My go-to gel for ~25 years, though some of the flavors don't agree with me at all. Most flavors are quite strong, so may want to explore other options if that's an issue for you.

Thank you for your feedback.

This is the good stuff

GU Energy Gels are my "go to" energy boost...and have been for the past 27 years.

They give me boost with in 5 minutes which will last for 30 minutes (20 years ago the boost lasted 45 minutes but not now, age does change things) and then it's time to hit the GU again.

Water and GU Energy Gels are my necessity for rides.

Thank you for your feedback.

Salted Watermelon provide the sodium without a salty taste

These gels provide the carbs and the sodium I need on my longer rides taking one about every 45 minutes.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very good product at a good price!

Gels are very useful during bicycle rides. They are a good source of protein. They get what you need into your system quickly.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best tasting coffee gel with caffine

Taste is subjective, but out of Clif, Honey Stinger, Hammer and GU, this is probably my favorite coffee flavored gel. Leaves no crazy after taste and gives you quick energy without a crash.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Flavor

Used the Gu gels with caffeine for a 300 mile gravel race that started at midnight. These were great to keep me going just before sunup when I know my body would come back to life. Great flavor with a caffeine punch in a small easy to carry size.

Thank you for your feedback.

Tasty, simple

These are some of my favorite ways to refuel while riding. Good flavors and easy to eat, although can occasionally be a little messysticky and I have to be careful about squeezing it up while riding.

My favorite flavors are caramel, vanilla, and caramel macchiato, all with caffeine.

Thank you for your feedback.

Nice boost

The GU energy gel packs are a good flavor. So long bike rides (60+ miles) take one before we head out and then one every hour. Keeps my energy level up and no lows.

Just make sure u chase it with water.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Fuel

I use GU Energy Gels as my go to fuel when I am cycling. They easily digest and give me the extra calories to ride harder and further.

GU energy gel is tasty, easy to carry and provides the energy to complete a strenuous ride without digestive problems.

I usually take two servings at the rest stop in the middle of the ride and two at the end . I like the taste especially the vanilla, chocolate and peanut butter flavors. I use the gels because I have angina and cannot digest bulky food without feeling distress on the rest of the ride.

Perhaps
