SOUPLESSE SELECTIONS - APRIL

Cycling is more than just a sport or mode of transport for us; it's a lifestyle. At Souplesse Cycling, we understand the joy of the open road, the thrill of the climb, and the satisfaction of a well-maintained bike. That’s why every month, we curate subscription boxes packed with top-notch items that make cycling more effortless. From nutrition and hydration essentials to maintenance tools and stylish accessories, we’ve got you covered. Here's to an awesome April!


This month, we’ve taken inspiration from a recent video on the GCN YouTube Channel that dives into the must-have accessories for every cyclist. Building on that theme and picking some of our favourites as well as Ollie’s, our latest box is designed to ensure you're equipped with the essentials, whether you're heading out for a casual ride or tackling a challenging route. Read on to discover the carefully selected items that will enhance your cycling experience this month!




Nutritionally we have four bundles, one from each of our tried and trusted brands:

  • Maurten - our favourite combination of Gel 160 and Solid 225. Gel 160 makes the most of Maurten's hydrogel technology — encapsulating 40 grams of carbohydrates in each serving. Solid 225 contains a glucose-fructose mix that shows similar absorption rates to carbohydrate drinks and gives you something to chew on!

  • Precision Fuel & Hydration - PF30 Gels and Chews to rapidly deliver 30g of carbs into your system with a non-sickly taste. Light and easy on the stomach and lightweight and compact to carry.

  • STYRKR - Gel 30, Bar 50 and STYRKRTHON. Gel 30 brings 30g of carbohydrates and a little nitric oxide boost to fuel top performance. Bar 50 has that bit greater carbohydrate content and all natural ingredients to fuel your rides. To recover we love the play on the old Marathon, with the STYRKRTHON a vegan protein bar that is super tasty.

  • Veloforte - a full range of options including bars, gels and chews! The bars use all natural ingredients to provide 40g of dual-source carbs and 5g of plant protein - ideal for longer rides. The chews are there for a pure energy boost; 44g of natural energy from real fruit and the purest electrolytes. Finally, the gels which are designed to provide both energy (22g of carbs) and electrolytes (110mg) - again with all natural ingredients. All these options taste great and are light on the stomach.



On the hydration front there are options to choose from too:

  • Maurten: Drink 320 / 320 CAF, the world's most carbohydrate-rich sports drink, based on the same hydrogel technology as Maurten's Gels. 80g of carbs per serving (500 ml). Our boxes come with and without 100mg caffeine options, utilizing the hydrogel technology to hide the bitterness of the caffeine.

  • Precision Fuel & Hydration: PH1000 Electrolyte tablets. These are a reasonably strong electrolyte drink designed to help you stay hydrated when you're sweating. Hypotonic formula enhances the absorption of water during exercise. Perfect for warm summer rides.

  • STYRKR: Dual Carb Drink MIX90 - Quick release, fast absorbing and gentle on the stomach - perfect to rehydrate and refuel on the bike.

  • Veloforte - we've opted to include the electrolyte based drinks with a mild carb level (22g) for something lighter on the stomach and very hydrating. We also include Veloforte's Recovery Protein Shakes to help you recover from hard rides and strength training sessions.
