Fast energy or fast pace rides. My favorite is Carb BOOM!  Time owned: 3 to 6 months
Carb BOOM! gels usually work for me when it comes to fast energy, or fast pace rides. My favorite is Carb BOOM!.

Carb BOOM! gel is great for people who can't handle large amounts of sugar at one time, especially while trying to ride hard in hotter weather. Carb-Boom is not overly sweet, and goes down smoothly. I haven't had the same cramps I get from the Honey Stingers, Gu and Power Bar while using this product. Carb-Boom Kiwi Strawberry and Banana Peach is very yummy. It has no caffeine, and it has real fruit in it, so it tastes like real food, not chemically like some of the gels can.


PROS

> Goes Down Easy, Good Value, Tasty, Works Quickly

> Special blend complex carbohydrates and just 2-4g of simple sugars to maximize energy delivery to working muscles

> Two essential electrolytes are present to effectively assist rehydratation, aid in key metabolic reactions and help replenish electrolytes lost in sweat

> Great tasting made from super concentrated
complex carbohydrates and flavored with real fruit

> Products contain no artificial colours, flavour or sweetener

I only use Carbboom now and you can also get it in the New 24 servings bottle and use a 5 shot flask. They usually run around $20 (lots less per serving than pouches), and the flask is a lot easier to deal with than the little foil pouches.

Highly recommended !
