Description
Maurten Solid 160 – real food fuel for the bike
Maurten Solid 160 is an oat and rice based bar with 40 grams of carbohydrates. It is fast, light and low in fibre. So it gives you a chewable option when you want a break from gels and drinks.
The bar is pre-cut in the middle, which means it splits into two equal halves of 20g of carbs each. As a result, it is easy to count your carbs on a long ride. Also, 40g matches Gel 160 and Drink Mix 160, so it fits right into a Maurten fuel plan.

Who is Maurten Solid 160 for?
It suits riders on steady long rides, as well as before a race or after training. For example, eat half at the café stop and save half for the ride home. Then if you want a cocoa flavour for variety, try Solid C 160.
What’s in the box
The box holds 12 bars. Each bar is one serve of 40g of carbs.
A quick fuelling tip
Always test new fuel in training before race day. So start with a plan for how many grams of carbs you want per hour, then build it from gels, drinks and bars. Also, keep a note of what worked on each ride. Over time, you will find the mix that suits your stomach and your pace.
