Chews Mixed Box

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"GU Energy Chews are my go-to for long trail rides when I want something more satisfying than a gel. They’re easy to eat, even mid-effort, and the flavor variety helps prevent taste fatigue on multi-hour days."

When we’re hours deep into a long ride, energy management becomes the difference between fading and finishing strong. GU Energy Chews offer a practical, easy-to-chew solution for mid-ride fueling, combining fast-acting carbohydrates with key performance nutrients. With both maltodextrin and fructose, they deliver energy efficiently while reducing the risk of stomach distress—crucial for staying in the zone during high-output segments.

We appreciate the addition of sodium, which supports hydration and electrolyte balance during heavy sweat loss, especially in the heat. Each chew also includes a blend of branched-chain amino acids to help reduce muscle breakdown and keep mental fatigue at bay—benefits we notice most when pushing the limits late in a ride. The chewy texture and range of bold, refreshing flavors make them a pleasure to consume, even deep into a multi-hour effort.

Whether we’re riding tempo, climbing passes, or cruising a fondo, GU Energy Chews are a go-to option for fueling without fuss—and the caffeine-free varieties give us flexibility depending on the day’s demands.
