l have never bought or used any Clif products before but this energy bar caught my eye and I thought I would get it a go. The flavour appealed to me as its not too nutty as alot of bars are. The bar is wider than any bar I have eaten over the years and is also shorter so more of a squarer shape to it. The outer packet is easy enough to open with fingerless gloves. Now for the chewy part which can be a deal or should I say teeth breaker. Its not too bad, its not too tough going and not too soft. It still takes some chewing to swallow it and I always need to wash it down with some juice. The taste is ok for an energy bar and will probably buy a few more the next time I see them. As for the extra boost well I am never convinced they do anything, some times I think its a mind thing with energy products. I might not be the only one that thinks that but other riders swear by the whole pre ride, during the ride and after ride energy product market. I dont take cycling serious enough now for all of that carry on but its a huge market out there not just the old favourites like High 5 and SiS etc.
RRP £1.66 and I paid £1.59 from Arragons Cycles
