Description
Maurten Solid C 160 – the cocoa energy bar
Maurten Solid C 160 is an oat and rice bar with cocoa and 40 grams of carbohydrates. The C stands for cocoa. So it gives you a mild chocolate taste and a change of flavour on long days in the saddle.
Like Solid 160, the bar is pre-cut into two equal halves of 20g of carbs each. As a result, carb counting stays simple. Also, it is light and low in fibre, so it is easy to eat on the move.

Who is Maurten Solid C 160 for?
It suits riders who want solid food on long rides but get bored of the same taste. So many riders swap between Solid 160 and Solid C 160 across the week. Also, it works well as a pre-ride snack or a quick refuel after training.
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.
