Somewhere along the ride effort, the math of fueling can turn into a problem. Modern endurance strategies keep pushing carbohydrate intake higher, and the difficulty isn't knowing the target—it's actually hitting it, hour after hour, without your gut rebelling or your hands wrestling packaging on a fast section of road. Enervit built the Carbo Gel C2:1PRO around that exact bottleneck.
When well-trained riders chase intakes of 90 grams of carbohydrate per hour and up, standard gels leave you juggling three or four sachets every 60 minutes just to stay on plan.
Most gels deliver 20-25g of carbs, so to hit 90g per hour with a standard gel you're taking three to four per hour and managing a lot of packaging, and Enervit cuts that in half—two gels gets you to 80g.
Each 60ml gel packs 40 grams of carbohydrate, so two of them put you at 80 grams for the hour with half the wrappers to deal with.
It is a maltodextrin and fructose-based gel in a 2:1 ratio, delivering 40g of carbohydrates per 60ml sachet.
That density earns its keep when you cannot afford to slow down or take a hand off the bars to fumble with packaging during a hard effort, and it is part of why Enervit positions this gel for riders logging serious volume.... Read More
The formula runs on a 2:1 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose, and the reasoning is straightforward once you know how the gut moves sugar.
Your gut can only absorb around 60g of carbs per hour through glucose alone, but adding fructose unlocks a second intestinal transporter that raises that ceiling to 90g or more per hour, and the 2:1 ratio is the most studied combination for maximizing carb uptake without GI distress.
That is exactly the mechanism that lets you sustain the intake rate a long race or a heavy training block demands, rather than blowing up your stomach trying to force it.
Enervit did not develop this line in a lab vacuum.
It was developed by the Enervit Team together with Tadej Pogacar and UAE Team Emirates, designed for the needs of the most advanced athletes.
The build stays deliberately lean—
zero fat and gluten free
—and it leans on
a carefully designed combination of glucose and fructose in a 2:1 ratio, and contains B vitamins
.
Vitamin B1 in particular contributes to normal energy metabolism and to reducing fatigue and tiredness.
The moderate sweetness matters more than it sounds: it helps you dodge the taste fatigue that sets in when you are choking down the same cloying gel for the fourth time in an afternoon.
This box carries 24 gels—enough to fuel a full block of long rides, a stack of race days, or a season's worth of key efforts without constantly reordering. Three flavors cover it here: Citrus, Lime, and Cola with Caffeine. The Citrus and Lime versions keep the ingredient list clean and caffeine-free, running on water, maltodextrin, fructose, xanthan gum as a thickener, citric acid, natural flavorings, potassium sorbate, and the B vitamins nicotinamide, pyridoxine hydrochloride, and thiamin mononitrate.
The Cola version is the one to save for when the effort turns brutal.
Its ingredients read water, maltodextrin (36.4%), fructose (18.2%), citric acid, xanthan gum, natural flavourings, caffeine (0.135%), potassium sorbate, nicotinamide, pyridoxine hydrochloride, and thiamin mononitrate.
That works out to 40g of carbohydrates with 100mg of caffeine and zero fat.
For riders seeking an additional performance boost, the caffeine is there to enhance focus and alertness during decisive moments such as the final climb, closing kilometers, or late-race attacks.
If you are the kind of rider who holds a caffeinated gel in reserve for the last hour of a time trial, this is where it slots into the plan.
Usage is simple.
Consume one to two gels for every hour of sporting activity, with each gel providing 40g of carbohydrates in a 2:1 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose.
If you are relying on the Carbo Gel as your primary fuel, one every 30 minutes keeps you comfortably above the 60-gram-per-hour threshold. Fold it into a plan that already leans on drink mixes, chews, and bars so you rotate textures across a long day, and note that the whole C2:1PRO line is built on the same 2:1 ratio so the formats stack cleanly into one system no matter which one you grab.
