Great STUFF
5I have been riding for a long time now and always use to take things to eat on my long 140 + rides. I then thought I would try out the Gels and the Sports Zero because we use to pull in and I would get a coke or two so I could refresh later. Well every since I started using the Gels and Sports Zero they are in my opinion only as good if not better. I can take as they state and really feel good during the ride. Before I never really thought of keeping the carbs up but now I would not use anything else because it works for me.

enhance performance and improve carbohydrate uptake
3Isogels are also available in a 'Plus' version, where the standard ingredients are joined by 30mg of caffeine. According to High5 website this will 'enhance performance and improve carbohydrate uptake'..... I have tested several sachets of standard IsoGel and Isogel Plus on some long rides, and they definitely work

provide sufficient energy
4Do they work? Yes, absolutely. I have used High5 Energy Gels on several long rides, and they definitely provided sufficient energy to keep me bowling along nicely. Most sports scientists agree that athletes can absorb a maximum of around 60g of glucose per hour, and that's illustrated well with these gels: on long sportives, after the first two hours, I find that one High5 Energy Gel, plus some carb-based drink, keeps me fuelled up for half an hour of fairly hard riding.....On a crude carbs-per-quid basis there are cheaper options out there from other brands, but the relatively small sachet size and the light texture of High5 Energy Gels might be preferred by riders who find the gels from some other manufacturers too big and thick to take all at once.

GREAT Flavour very smooth
5Tried both flavors and the raspberry is the less tart...very enjoyable and provided that required energy boost I was looking for. Would recommend to anyone looking for an easy digest gel on the go..

Easiest gel to eat
5These are just like other gels in terms of energy gained. The difference is in the liquid consistency making them very easy to get down quick. The flavours where good and on par with other brands. This has to be one of my favourites because I don't have to fight with it trying to get it down while I'm in the middle of a group. Just rip open and drink it down. Just like a lot of the other reviewers I love the raspberry flavour the most.

Flavor can be key
4I bought a box of each of these and realized the raspberry actually goes down very nicely, and it's not a jolt of caffeine, enough to keep you going on marathons when you alternate between a caffeine and non-caffeine one. The orange one however leaves you with a bad after taste, and needs to be washed down with water, the raspberry one however is fine.

Gourmet Energy Gels!
4The Raspberry Gels are divine if you can say that about energy gels, and certainly addictive. Be warned you will have to resist the temptation to take more than you need on each ride! Consistency is nice and when your working hard they go down easy with minimal if no H20 needed at the time. They do the trick in terms of energy requirement.

great taste, great consistency. Great price!
4I like the high5 gels a lot, with sharp tastes and a semi-liquid consistency, they go down smoothly without having to drink 250mL of water.
