ClifShot Energy Gels (Box of 24)(Return to Product Page)

Clif Gels provide a good source of energy during a bike ride. It is also easy on the digestive system during the ride.

Very good product at a reasonable price. Periodic mark down price offered by supplier.

...you're not trying to savor the taste of a gel whilst you pump carbs and caffeine into your system on a ride. It's not the tastiest, but, it's effective. The caffeine hits your system quickly enough without giving one the shakes (at least not me), and, within a few minutes the fatigue starts to fade and you're turning the pedals with a bit more enthusiasm (if not less pain and maybe a bit more wattage). Maybe a banana is healthier. But, these things won't bruise and you can stuff a lot more of them into your pockets for those really long rides.

I take the gel shots during rest stops on rides longer than 20 miles. I recently rode a century and took a gel shot every 20 miles. The gels aren't a substitute for food but it did help me keep my energy up between snack and rest stops. I find the fruit flavors more refreshing. The chocolate flavors are too heavy for me.

easy to digest. One gel every 45 minutes with energy power in the water bottle provides enough carbohydrates for long endurance rides.

Nice that the tab stays attached to cut down on litter

I have been using Clif Shot for years. This is the best energy gel on the market in my opinion. I especially love the vanilla flavor (more like cake icing) which really works and provides a convenient way to fuel up on the go. The sale price made it a slam dunk.

always down a gel after every hour on the saddle, and it seems to get the job done.

the sweetness and kick of caffeine helps a lot.

it's a little on the thick side, so it would be helpful to drink some liquids along with its consumption.

The litter leash is a plus, you can grab it from your pocket, tear it with your mouth and down it all by using one hand.

These a good gels and I do appreciate the tab tail thingy which keeps the top attached so you only have to keep track of one piece of trash as opposed to two. I've not had any GI issues with these, and so far, they've worked a treat when out for longer rides.

Easy on my stomach, lots of energy. Especially good for early mornings as I can have less coffee at home before I leave, still get my caffiene and not worry about an unplanned pit stop - brilliant!

Easy to use packet. Environmentally friendly with the leash. I notice the difference about five minutes after consuming. Great product, great packaging!

Goes down rather thick and leaves an unpleasant aftertaste. Not sure I would buy this again

I use this on long endurance rides. Love the packaging, easy to open and I like how the top is attached to itself so less likely to litter.

I have one 60 minutes into the ride. Keeps me going strong

Gel fits nicely in back of jersey & when taken every hour, I am able to ride for hours

The Cliff shots give me an extra boost when I really need it.

Great product that packs well in a back pocket. Does what it says it will do. I like the double shots of caffeine the best.

Travels well in cold and hot temperatures. Absorbs quick for fast fuel when getting low. Used in combination with Clif Shot Bloks which keeps my legs from fading as much on the longer more demanding rides..

Tastes good, no stomach distress, quick boost, reasonable cost.

Delicious taste and really does the trick if your about to cramp on a bike ride. Chocolate is my favorite!
