You need fuel, but a gel isn't always appealing. Sometimes you just want something to chew. That's why the Maurten \u003cstrong\u003eenergy bar\u003c\/strong\u003e was designed. The Solid 160 is a compact oat and rice-based bar that provides 40 grams of carbohydrates per bar. Simple, effective, and easy to carry in a back pocket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat this bar contains and why\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ingredient list is short. Fructose-glucose syrup, oat flakes, and maltodextrin form the base, supplemented with rice flour, a little sugar, and sunflower oil. The combination of several carbohydrate sources is deliberate: fructose and glucose use different transport pathways in the intestine. This allows your body to absorb more carbohydrates per hour than with a single sugar source. Each bar provides 40 grams of carbohydrates, exactly the same as the Maurten Gel 160 or Drink Mix 160, which simplifies calculations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCut in half for flexible intake\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bar is pre-cut in the middle. You can easily break it into two equal halves of 20 grams of carbohydrates each. This may seem like a minor detail, but it matters on the go. On a leisurely two-hour ride, you might have half a bar per hour. On race day, you combine a whole bar with a gel or sports drink to get close to 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen a bar works better than a gel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA gel is fast, liquid, and effective at high intensity. But not everyone tolerates hours of gels straight; the stomach sometimes demands something solid. A carbohydrate bar like the Solid 160 offers chewable fuel and therefore a change of texture. Especially during long efforts at moderate intensity, solid food is often easier to tolerate than one might think. It's all about timing: at a calmer pace, the stomach has more leeway. Just before the finish line at full intensity, prefer a gel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaurten's modular approach\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaurten has designed all its products to provide the same amount of carbohydrates per serving: 40 grams. Gel, powder sachet, or this energy bar, you know exactly what you're taking in. For runners and cyclists who seriously plan their nutrition, this is a real plus. One bar = 40 grams. Half a bar = 20 grams. That's it. This simplicity is the very idea of the modular system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maurten","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49398150496484,"sku":"7350008412460","price":34.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/9724\/7460\/files\/maurtensolid160indoos.jpg?v=1784023346","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.fr\/en\/products\/maurten-solid-160-barre-energetique-12-barres-maurten","provider":"LUTO Supplements France","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
