Great light taste in both Lemon and Fruit Punch. Has everything you need: amino acids, electrolytes and carbs, to get you through a race or tough ride. Dissolves completely and quickly: no clumps.
Weaknesses:
None.
Similar Products Used:
Amino Fast Charge, Cytomax, Gatorade, Clif Recovery
Bike Setup:
Marzocchi Corsa SL, Mavic 717/Hugi 240 wheels, SUNLINE V-1 Carbon bar & lock-on grips, KENDA Karma tires, XPEDO MF-1A Ti-Ti pedals, SIGMASPORT BC1106 Team Computer, Avid Juicy Ultimate brakes, XTR cranks,shifters,rear derail/XT front derail & cassette. 25.5 lbs.
Assembled at the one and only BUY MY BIKES!
Bottom Line:
I have used this in training and racing, XC and endurance rides and it's great. Light consistency, I even mix it double strength to get the tons of electrolytes and carbs I need during a race. The amino acids are supreme. They're simple proteins that keep you fueled up when you can't eat, but they're absorbed rather than digested so the blood stays in your legs instead of your stomach. The difference in how much better I feel immediately after a race and also the next day is huge. Freeze it in your water bottle the night before for a hot day or a huge ride and as it thaws it's awesome!

Strengths:
Both flavors I've used (Fruit Punch and Lemon-Lime) are great tasting and light enough to not cause stomach problems as some other brands are known to.
Similar Products Used:
Hammer Heed, Cytomax, Powerade, Gatorade, etc.
Bottom Line:
Use the product regularly and found it to be a great pre and post ride hydration supplement as well as during any length ride or race. Great in hot weather racing. When temps exceed 100+ supplemented with Fast-Charge for additional electrolyte replacement.

Works well and taste great. I am quite fond of the Pro Grape. I really like the way it taste and It works well when taken after a ride for recovery. With the Pro formula it isnt so much what you feel the day of your ride it's what you don't feel the day after.

none

If you want something that taste great and leaves you feeling good the next morning you should give the Pro Grape a try.
