GUEnergy Gels (Box of 24)(Return to Product Page)

I use 1 before I ride and 1 mid ride

One of the GU flavors that I don't seem to get tired of...well, the Espresso one too !!

Snack ,taste good . Just wish not so much . $$$

Tastes great and does not upset my belly. Easy to transport.

These were a deal of the day item and were at a good price. I bought the Salted Caramel flavor, which is my favorite. They arrived timely and with no issues so I am happy with my purchase and will be purchasing again.

My favorites all way, gentle with my stomach and good taste

I like the taste and especially the caffeine which always helps when you're starting to lag on the ride.

Great price and good for long rides

it provides some energy for long distance ride

I use GU Energy Gels about fifteen minutes before I start the ride. They taste good and help get me in the mindset to get a great ride in. During my ride I usually have a second and sometimes a third gel when I know there are climbs coming.

My only complaint is they are tough to get open and once opened its tough to get the gel out of the packaging. This said, GU should make the packaging with detents at the opening, so that the foil rips open easier. Once open, the opened neck should be made to handle more gel volume so that's its not so hard to get the product out.

Because of the effort required to open and consume, I normally use them when I'm coasting or stopped. I have other energy products that I use when I'm keeping up a pace.

GU is perfect for me. The chcoclate flavor is very good - my favorite - and the expresso is great since it has 2x the caffeine (which I like on race day). Very good prior to and during running, biking, or other workouts.

GU is great for quick energy, the espresso favor is a favorite that always goes down easily hot or cold!

I use Gu before my early morning tempo runs as a quick source of fuel. I also use them on my long runs. I like the consisteny of Gu better than all other competitors and it seems to give me the best boost of energy.
