Need Help Choosing?
Going for a long steady pace?
Choose High Energy Gel. It provides a large amount of carbohydrates (50g) and energy (200 kcal) to fuel endurance efforts like long rides or marathons.
Need a mental boost or racing?
Go for Caffeine Energy Gel (Cherry Citrus or High Energy + Caffeine). It contains caffeine (75–160 mg) to sharpen focus and reduce perceived exertion — ideal for intense efforts or racing situations.
Sweating a lot?
Pick Magnesium Ultra Gel. With added electrolytes like magnesium, calcium, sodium, and a touch of sugar, it helps maintain hydration and prevent cramps during hot or high-intensity training.
Looking for something light and easy to take in?
Try the Isotonic Gel (Blackcurrant or Lemon/Lime). It has a thinner texture and doesn’t require water — perfect for sensitive stomachs or shorter efforts.
Want maximum energy in a compact dose?
Choose High Energy Gel or High Energy Gel + Caffeine. With up to 50g carbs and 200 kcal per serving, it’s designed to deliver quick, powerful fuel during demanding sessions.
Caffeine sensitive?
Stick to Isotonic, Magnesium Ultra, or Regular High Energy gels — all without added caffeine.
Training vs. Racing?
For training: Isotonic and Magnesium Ultra are gentler and easier to digest.
For racing: High Energy or Caffeine variants deliver more punch when every second counts.
