Solid reinvents by removing everything but the essentials. The result is a solid product based on oats and rice, a recipe optimized for performance. While the product may look, feel, and taste like a bar, it is certainly not a bar.

Solid is the first non-Hydrogel product, developed according to Maurten’s founding principles – science, athlete, nutrition, and performance innovation. Solid 225 and Solid 225 C are fast, light, carbohydrate-rich, and low-fiber fuel sources – the perfect complement to your Hydrogel diet.
Solid 225 is neutral and natural. Solid 225 C contains cocoa, which offers a taste alternative or a flavor reset during training or racing.
Performance-focused
The majority of “energy” bars are designed to be snacks. Solid, on the other hand, is designed to fuel both performance and aid recovery. These are two different worlds – one is destined for the top shelf of supermarkets, the other for the top step of the podium.
Virtually all athletes who tested Solid commented on the pleasant oat and rice-based texture and its natural taste. With a minimalist ingredient list, Solid provides carbohydrate-rich, low-fiber nutrition – a winning combination.
High in carbohydrates, low in sugar
Solid contains a lot of carbohydrates, more than most other bars. The taste offers sweetness, but don’t think Maurten just loaded it with sugar! The carbohydrates and slightly sweet taste come from the balance of ingredients: sugar, oats, and rice.
Not like other bars
When Maurten started its Solid adventure, the goal was not to make a commercial product. The brand thought: “If we make a bar that is good enough for an elite athlete, it will be good enough for all athletes.”
The brand also realized that there simply weren’t many options on the market for a performance-focused bar. Solid is the result.
Complementary to hydrogel
Solid does not replace Hydrogel during training and competitions; it complements it.
For marathon runners, Solid is a perfect recovery snack after a session or race to restore carbohydrates. This bar also works as an alternative to pre-race snacks.
For cyclists, Solid is an excellent fuel option for low to medium intensity training and as a pre- and post-ride snack.
For ultra-runners, the standard nutritional advice is to eat something solid every 4 hours. Solid’s salt content is also an advantage for restoring sodium levels during long training sessions and competitions.
For triathletes, Solid is an ideal fuel between sessions and can be used as a recovery snack after training or competition to provide carbohydrates.
Athlete quotes
Molly Seidel: “It gives me quick carbs that I can use and it’s really light on my stomach. I felt good when I ate it and was able to go for a run five minutes later.”
Flora Duffy: “Easy to eat when you’re on the bike, it’s really good. I really liked the taste – neutral and at the same time a light sweet taste.”
Jan Frodeno: “The perfect snack.”
Carl Fredrik Hagen, professional cyclist, Israel Start-Up Nation: “It’s an endurance product, not just a chocolate bar.”
