How & When To Use
Veloforte energy bars are designed for athletes fuelling efforts measured in hours, not minutes. Delivering up to 36g of natural carbohydrate and plant protein from whole dates, fruit and nuts in every bar, they make long days simpler to fuel — with real food you can keep eating session after session, flavours you still want at hour four, and the confidence of knowing exactly what's in your back pocket.
|
Carbs per Bar |
33–36g natural carbohydrate from whole dates, fruit and nuts — slower-releasing fuel for efforts measured in hours. Mocha carries 29g, built around recovery rather than fuelling |
|
Carbs per Hour |
One bar covers a steady hour. Pair with a gel or chews to reach the 60–90g per hour that longer, harder efforts call for |
|
When To Take |
1–2 hours before you start, then every 60–90 minutes through a long steady effort. Take it on a climb, a flat or a natural lull — chewing takes time |
|
Best For |
Long rides and gravel days, sportives, marathon build-up, hiking and mountain days, back-to-back training blocks, and the hours between sessions |
|
Protein |
7:1 to 8:1 across the range — fuelling first, with plant protein from whole nuts alongside it. Mocha runs 4:1, for after the session rather than during it |
|
Texture & Chew |
A soft, real-food chew. Best at moderate effort where you can eat comfortably. For race pace or high intensity, reach for a gel or chews instead |
|
Suitable For |
Cycling, running, hiking, trail and mountain sports, gym and strength blocks, everyday active fuelling. Every bar is gluten-free and caffeine-free; most are vegan (Ciocco & Classico contain honey) |
|
Train Your Gut |
Whole-food ingredients support comfortable, repeatable fuelling as long-day volume builds |
|
Fuelling Strategy |
Bars carry the long steady hours. Limon, Rosso and Tempo gels carry race pace. Fresco chews bridge the two. Rotate flavours across the range to keep fuel appealing deep into an effort. |
