Precision Fuel 30 Caffeine Energy Gel

A 30g carb + 100mg caffeine punch for race day surges and early wakeups. Easy to rip, easy to down, and a go-to when I need that extra gear.

🥇 What I Actually Use – Get Yours

Why I Like It

This is my go-to caffeine gel for big race days when I want a strong kick and a nice big dose of carbs. Each gel delivers 100mg of caffeine (like a cup of coffee) plus 30g of carbs, making it perfect for early-race wakeups or late-race surges.

I’ll take one near the start if I’m feeling a little too chill, and again ~20 minutes before a final big effort — like a climb, breakaway, or push to the finish. It’s not the tastiest gel I’ve used (caffeine-heavy gels never are), but it goes down easy and does the job without gut issues.

Quick Specs

100mg caffeine per gel (equivalent to 1 cup of coffee)
30g of carbohydrates (2:1 glucose to fructose ratio)
Mild flavor — not too sweet
Compact packaging with attached tear tab (makes for only a single piece of trash)

In My Setup

Early in a race: If I’m still settling into race mode, I’ll use this to kickstart focus and effort.
Late in a race: I take one before final climbs or finish efforts when I need a jolt.
I pair this with Neversecond C30 gels ↗️ for flavor variety and extra sodium (200mg/gel).
The tab design is brilliant — no fumbling with trash or sticky pockets.

Tips

This is a supplement gel, not something I eat every 30 minutes — I use it strategically for the caffeine.
Try it in training before you race with it — 100mg caffeine can be too much for some riders mid-race.
Keep it in an easy-to-reach spot — jersey pocket or taped to your top tube for late-race use.

Who It’s For

Anyone racing endurance MTB, gravel, or long road events who wants a simple, reliable caffeine+carb gel for high-effort moments. Whether you use caffeine regularly or only on race day, this is a solid tool to keep in your nutrition plan.

Alternatives

Neversecond C30 gels ↗️ : Best-tasting 30g carb gel I’ve used — includes 200mg sodium but no caffeine.
Neversecond C30 gels w. Caffeine ↗️ : Same great tasting gel with 75mg of caffeine a little less caffeine than Precision but an excellent choice.
Honey Stinger Caffeine Gel ↗️ : Classic gel consistency and tastes good. Nice option that’s less expensive and less caffeine (32mg) than the options above.
