Technical details and features

The C2:1 formula combines carbohydrates in a 2:1 mix and aims to enable hourly intakes beyond 60 g and up to around 90 g per hour, which is particularly relevant at high output. The Salty Peanut recipe adds 200 mg sodium to specifically compensate sweat losses and support fluid balance. Thanks to the low fat content of about 5 % and the reduced protein content, the bar is easy to chew and designed for fast gastric transit. As a source of vitamin B1 it contributes to normal energy metabolism – useful on long Alpine passes, intervals or in a marathon. The oat base provides a pleasant texture with moderate sweetness and light salty notes, which reduces sensory fatigue on long tours.

Use cases and benefits

Whether a base ride around Lake Zurich, long gravel tracks in the Jura or a race at the weekend – this bar is made for endurance efforts with a constant energy demand. In combination with drinks and gels from the C2:1PRO‑line the carbohydrate intake can be structured according to intensity to 60–90 g per hour and beyond. Current practical reports from the pro peloton show that top athletes aim for up to 120 g/h depending on the stage profile – achieved through a mix of drinks, gels, bars and solid food. For cyclists in Switzerland this means: planable fueling on long climbs, in summer heat or during intensive training blocks, without unnecessary chewing. The salty peanut note also helps vary the craving for sweet tastes and keeps appetite more stable under high load.

Usage and tolerability

One bar provides 30 g carbohydrates and is suitable depending on the plan as a building block every 30–60 minutes, combined with drinks or gels to achieve the individually appropriate intake. The Salty Peanut variant delivers 200 mg sodium, which can be noticeably supportive on hot days or with high sweat rates. The recipe is gluten‑free and labeled vegan by the manufacturer; it contains oats as well as peanut components and may contain traces of soy, milk, nuts and sesame – important for people with allergies. The bar is designed for consumption during exercise and should be part of a varied diet. Practical: compact 45 g, easy to stow in jersey pockets, easy to open and pleasant to chew – ideal when things need to happen quickly on the bike.
