from Virginia Date Reviewed: February 2, 2005 Strengths: I really like the consistency of the product both from a taste/liquid perspective and in the manner of the smooth energy release I receive from it. There are a lot of products on the market that claim to be based on the "long-chain complex carbohydrate" tip but this one is the one that works in my opinion. Weaknesses: Honestly....there aren't any. It could be a personal preference thing but I doubt it. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Schaeffer Farms Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Similar Products Used: I have tried them all over the years from Gu, Cliff Shot, Hammer Gel, CarbBoom...you name it. Bike Setup: Santa Cruz Superlight, Fox RLC 100, Shimano XT, Avid Brakes.

from Buffalo, NY,USA Date Reviewed: January 13, 2005 Strengths: Taste, texture and affordability. I also like the fact that it has no simple sugars (fructose)that can play havoc on your innerds especially during a long ride. It is also versitle. You can use it straight from the pouch or mix it in a water bottle for a nice refreshing taste and can even add some endurolyte powder for those long hot rides.
