I've been around for a while, tried nearly everything, and this stuff is better than most and as good as the best (for waaaay less $$). Fill your bottle with 25g, 50g, or 100g, it still tastes great, isn't syrupy, and, for this digestive tract, easy to digest even after a half dozen hours on the bike.
Try it. You won't regret it.
Absolutely use this on short and long rides. I mix up the percentage based on my training need. Definitely a game changer for my cycling training and racing
I love this mix!
This stuff is honestly great. I feel like most mixes are trying to do something special to stand out from the competition. Double dosing carbs, extra salt, weird freeze dried fruit, etc. Monolith just gets it right. No BS. Not paying for marketing or nutrition fads.
Great flavor, easy to mix in, not super overpowering.
1:0.8 carb ratio
This glucose to fructose ratio is scientifically proven to provide the fastest absorption rate without overloading the gut.
Essential electrolytes
Another prime function of a high quality drink mix is to replace electrolytes lost through sweat. We use sodium citrate instead of table salt to provide these electrolytes. Sodium citrate helps reduce gut discomfort, speeds up sodium absorption and has a mild tart flavor. No intense salt flavor here.
Light flavor
One of the biggest struggles with high carbohydrate drink mixes is the flavor intensity. We design our mix to have a light flavor, even at higher density. Think a refreshing fruit-infused water... with added carbs and electrolytes.
50g of carbs per scoop
A marginal gain to speed up your pre-ride routine: quick and easy to mix. Less time to prep means more time to sweat.
