# Signature Line - CHO MAXX Pouch 1200 g - Grapefruit > WINFORCE Signature Line - CHO MAXX pouch 1200 g - Grapefruit - Swiss sports drink, 1:0.8 glucose/fructose, up to 120g/h, 12% osmotic - Price: 58.00 CHF - Brand: WINFORCE - Category: Sports Drinks - Availability: in stock - SKU: 7640143115174 ## Signature Line – CHO MAXX Pouch 1200 g – Grapefruit The WINFORCE CHO MAXX from the **Signature Line** is a Swiss **sports drink** for hard endurance efforts on the bike, in triathlon or while trailrunning. The formula relies on a mix of natural **starch** (potato and corn), **fructose** and **isomaltulose** plus a bit of **table salt**, which keeps the energy available evenly and intentionally makes the taste less sweet. CHO MAXX was developed and refined over several years, inspired by current findings on the **glucose:fructose ratio of 1:0.8** and an intake of up to **120 g carbohydrates per hour**. The **Grapefruit** variant delivers a fresh, slightly tart note and is 100% developed and manufactured in Switzerland. Thanks to an **osmotic concentration of 12%**, stomach tolerance is a central focus even during long sessions. One 1200 g pouch corresponds to 20 servings of 60 g each and is aimed at ambitious athletes in Switzerland. - **Grapefruit flavor**: refreshing, natural and intentionally less sweet - **Up to 120 g carbohydrates per hour** according to the formulation principle - **Glucose:Fructose 1:0.8** for high uptake rates - **Without maltodextrin**, instead starch + **isomaltulose** - **Osmotic concentration 12%** for high tolerance - **Swiss Made**: developed and produced in Switzerland - **20 servings** of 60 g per pouch (1200 g total) - **Easy preparation** and good mixability in the bike bottle ## Technische Details und Funktionen CHO MAXX relies on multiple transportable carbohydrates where **glucose** and **fructose** use different transport pathways; in practice the ratio **1:0.8** has established itself to make high intake amounts usable more efficiently. Studies show that uptake rates around **120 g/h** in this ratio can increase exogenous carbohydrate oxidation, which is particularly relevant for long, intense efforts. At the same time, WINFORCE deliberately avoids **maltodextrin** and instead combines **starch** with **isomaltulose** to keep the sweetness moderate and to smooth blood sugar response. The **osmotic concentration of 12%** is designed to avoid unnecessarily stressing the gastrointestinal tract even at high intake. For the **Grapefruit** flavor the manufacturer lists ingredients: starch mix (potato, corn), fructose, isomaltulose, acidifier **citric acid**, table salt and grapefruit flavor. Nutritional values per 100 g: 1640 kJ/392 kcal, 98 g carbohydrates (of which 52 g sugars), 0.5 g salt, fat/protein/fiber 0 g. ## Einsatzgebiete und Vorteile This **sports drink** plays to its strengths in **road cycling** in Switzerland – whether long Alpine passes, intense intervals on the trainer or marathon events on the **mountain bike**. For sessions from about two hours where energy supply becomes decisive, the 1:0.8 formula supports high **carbohydrate intake** with moderate sweetness at the same time. Especially in racing when intensity is high and nutrition must be planned, many athletes benefit from the clearly structured dosing of **60 g per serving**. Note, however, that individual tolerance and **Gut‑Training** play a role; recent reports from the pro scene show large differences in oxidizable carbohydrate amounts between individuals. CHO MAXX was further developed in exchange with **WorldTour** experiences and aims to provide consistent energy without unnecessary stomach strain. The Grapefruit variant complements this with a refreshing, non-sticky flavor profile that remains easy to drink even after several hours. ## Verzehrempfehlung und Anwendung Per serving you count on **60 g powder**, which for the 1200 g pouch results in **20 servings**; preparation is done classically directly in the drinking bottle. First put some water into the bottle, add the powder, top up with water and **shake vigorously** until everything is fully dissolved. Depending on fluid needs and intensity you can adjust the powder amount per bottle or the bottle volume; in training this lets you optimally fine-tune your individual **tolerance**. For long race days on the **road bike**, during **Gravel** adventures or in **Triathlon** preparation, it is advisable to increase the target intake gradually to accustom the gastrointestinal tract. Store the pouch **cool and dry** and orient your fueling to route, elevation and temperature. This way you can adapt CHO MAXX in **Grapefruit** flexibly to your Swiss training and racing profile. ## Variants - 7640143115174: in stock --- Source: https://kilometro.ch/en/products/sports-drinks-650/signature-line-cho-maxx-pouch-1200-g-grapefruit-354
