Gel flasks

[Susie]

Does anybody use gel flasks instead of individually wrapped gels for fuel?  Do you have one you like?  Do you carry it on a belt?  (They seem a little bulkier than individual gels, which I had been carrying in a race number belt w/ loops for gels.)

I noticed that the jugs of Hammer gel are way cheaper per serving than the foil wrapped packs.  Plus, individual gels don't work so well for me anyway (on the bike) because my teeth don't line up right to be able to tear them open.  I need two hands

Any suggestions on your gel flask system?

I know that Daisy uses Hammer Gel in a flask, but I don't know what kind of flask.

I understand about the Gel opening problem. My teeth also don't line up correctly, so they are useless for opening Gu and my hands are often too sweaty or cold/numb to grip it. You have me thinking about Hammer Gel now.

Hammer makes flasks. But I think hammer sucks as a fuel.

Susie you have to try carbo pro and EFS for electrolytes, so much better than Hammer gel any day!

I can't believe how my energy is sustained and I don't get hungry on a 3 hour ride! It's the coolest thing!!
