Pornstar Posted November 14, 2008 Share Hi Yes i did see it, we work everyday and every batch on this and sometimes a few slip through that might leak or have the butterfly cut slighter higher, unfortuantely in SA we still dealing with human error but we run on a 3% wastage which i think is very good... If you guys ever have this happening , get hold of me with the batch number and expiry and we will sort it out for you Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/25505-energy-gels-gu-whasp-usn/page/13/#findComment-474870 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capri Wheeler Posted November 15, 2008 Share well, coming from someone who has never used it. . .. I think that recommendation from the pros is good cause when I went to a talk about riding by malcolm lange I tried all the things he recommended and now I want to buy a raleigh just because he said so. It all brain-wash but it works. Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/25505-energy-gels-gu-whasp-usn/page/13/#findComment-474897 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rad006 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Bought the new Protein Gels....Taste better, sunday will tell how they work...and before anybody says dont try new stuff on race day I ate 2 yesterday to see how my stomach handles them and I was perfect.... Even if I do blow it doesnt matter as a Tricycle is never the fastest way to do 94.7 Nice Flavour Collin thought it would be more milky though but not a problem...

rad006 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Yeah Barley Green looks like Algae....Pornstar I think we might need to go big on WHASP for me Next year. Dont worry I wont scare you I know the situation I just think we can work out some incentives Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/25505-energy-gels-gu-whasp-usn/page/13/#findComment-475171 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooterza Posted November 16, 2008 Share After reading this posting, I decided to give Whasps a try. Must admit that the Green 100mg Caffeine one tasted pretty harsh! The 50mg one was better though still not great. The new propolis/protein vanilla one was not bad at all though flavour-wise. But having said all that, I rode the 94.7 today and did much better than I could have hoped for. No bonking and finished strongly. Took a plain crazy berry at 20 minutes, then a propolis at 1 hour 20, then a 50mg caffeine at about 2.20 and didn't feel the need for the 100mg caffeine one so still have it for another time. Hard to say conclusively that it was whasp that did it for me but certainly didn't run out of gas so a good sign. I will use them again.

TarmacPro Posted November 16, 2008 Share Pornstar....Whasp Gel is really great. The only gripe I have is the packet is not as strong as other makes. Mine leaked and had to dump it. I hope the others hold better.... Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/25505-energy-gels-gu-whasp-usn/page/13/#findComment-475588 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gman1834 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Thanks for the promo at the expo, I tried the green wasp just as I got off the N14 thinking it should last the last 40min well it lasted but i was over the line in less than 30min. It doesn't taste to good but taking a sip of my energy drink and having a jellybaby the taste were gone, i could feel the stuff working. wish i had more for the second lap with the wife. My wife had one of the woman specific gels and said it taste good and it worked, she also said the gel is to big but she took the other half later in the race.

Troy Posted November 19, 2008 Share I had a Wasp on the N14 and was told I went 2km/h faster. Not sure, I wasn't there . I do know that I don't have a problem with the taste, I did end up having to gnaw my way through the packaging to get to the contents coz the top didn't tear nicely, and a girl need nicely. I'm chuffed and i will definately use Wasp again.
