A 60-gram chewable energy bar with 45 grams of carbohydrates. SiS Beta Fuel Energy Chew Bar Orange provides the same 1:0.8 glucose to fructose ratio as the rest of the Beta Fuel range, but in a solid chewable form instead of a liquid gel. The flavor is a light, fresh, not-too-sweet orange. Breaks into six cubes of approximately 7 grams of carbohydrates each. Gluten-free, caffeine-free. Informed Sport certified.
Gels are liquid and are absorbed in one go. This works well for many athletes, but during prolonged effort, taste fatigue or gastric irritation from liquid sugars can occur. A chew bar requires chewing, which provides a completely different sensation. Salivary glands are stimulated, the chewing motion mentally gives the impression of eating rather than drinking, and the ingestion speed is slower. The latter can be advantageous if you want to relieve your stomach while still getting carbohydrates.
Gels in the Beta Fuel range use maltodextrin and fructose. The chew bar uses glucose syrup and fructose syrup. The principle is the same: two carbohydrate sources with two different transport pathways in the intestine. Glucose via SGLT1 to the muscles, fructose via GLUT5 to the liver. The 1:0.8 ratio increases oxidation efficiency from 62% to 74% compared to a 2:1 ratio. 45 grams of carbohydrates per 60-gram bar.
The bar is pre-cut into six separate cubes. You can break the bar in advance and keep the pieces in a pocket to take them one by one. Or you open the bar and break off a piece on the go. Each cube provides approximately 7 grams of carbohydrates. For most athletes, this is enough for a 10- to 15-minute intake at a pace where you don't want to stop or spend time eating.
The chew bar is designed to supplement or replace gels in the Beta Fuel strategy. For those who ride or run long distances and want to alternate between liquid and solid energy sources, it fits well alongside gels without complicating carbohydrate calculations.
A 60-gram bar provides 45 grams of carbohydrates and is pre-scored into six separate cubes, each containing approximately 7 grams of carbohydrates. This is convenient if, during exercise, you prefer to consume small amounts at regular intervals rather than an entire product all at once. You can fine-tune your intake without having to open new packaging.
The chew bar uses the same energy logic as the rest of the Beta Fuel range: glucose and fructose in a 1:0.8 ratio. In liquid gels, this is achieved via maltodextrin and fructose. In the solid bar, via glucose syrup and fructose syrup. The result is the same: two transport pathways in the intestine are used simultaneously, increasing oxidation efficiency from 62% to 74% compared to a 2:1 ratio.
Not everyone enjoys consuming gels hour after hour. A chew bar requires chewing, which suits some athletes better and causes fewer stomach upsets than liquid sugars. It slips into a jersey pocket or a running belt and can be consumed without water or a bottle. Use it alongside gels, or as a complete replacement depending on your preference for the day.
The bar is made of carbohydrates, pectin as a gelling agent, and a colouring agent. No fat, no protein, no caffeine. There is no maximum number per day. Gluten-free. The only limit is your hourly carbohydrate requirement of 80 to 120 grams. Each batch is tested by Informed Sport against the WADA Prohibited List.

Gels are liquid, 60 ml per sachet, 40 grams of carbohydrates, ready to use. Chew bars are solid, 60 grams per bar, 45 grams of carbohydrates, to be chewed. The carbohydrate source also differs slightly: gels use maltodextrin and fructose, bars use glucose syrup and fructose syrup. The principle (1:0.8 ratio, two transport pathways) is the same. The choice is a matter of texture preference and use during exercise.
The bar can be broken into six cubes in advance, each with about 7 grams of carbohydrates. You can take half of the bar (three cubes, about 22 grams of carbohydrates) and save the other half for later. Or you can break it into pieces right away before you leave. In cold weather, the bar becomes harder and less easy to break, so this is something to be mindful of during winter training or early spring outings.
One bar provides 45 grams of carbohydrates. For the recommended 80 to 120 grams per hour, two bars per hour are needed at the lower end of the range. When combined with a gel, the 40 grams from the gel are added. One bar plus one gel provides 85 grams, which falls precisely within the recommended zone for most endurance athletes.
Yes, the ingredient list is identical for both flavors. Only the flavoring differs. Both contain turmeric extract as a coloring for the yellow hue. There are no additional colorings or ingredients that vary from one flavor to another.
In hot weather, the bar may become a little softer but remains usable. In cold weather, it becomes harder and less elastic, making it more difficult to break into cubes. A practical tip: before heading out in cold weather, break the bar into pieces inside its packaging so you can easily grab it on the go.
The mixpack contains a combination of lemon and orange bars in a single order. Convenient if you want to try both flavors or alternate without buying a full pack of each flavor. The contents and quantity per order are indicated on the product page.
