What's the Best energy gel and where can i get it the cheapest?

Question

I usually just use GU. I ride long like 2.5 to 4 hours on the bike at a time with a group that averages 22-25. We are getting faster and the guys are really serious. Some days i just feel like the GU just don't cut it for the energy i need. And yes i carry enough hydration that has the right stuff in it. Just looking for a better energy gel or a cheaper place to buy GU

Answer 1

hammer gel sells a bottle of gel super cheaper.  then you need to purchase a bottle to ride with at $2.  very feasible.  it worked great on my last long ride.

Answer 2

GU has introduced a new gel that has been reviewed very well locally. If you buy GU by the case it is much less expensive, but I'm assuming you're already doing this. MSRP for a box of 24 gu's is $25, you can usually get to around $20 if you buy online.
