Like to try Hammer Nutriention Product-Any referral?

I'm interested in trying Hammer's products and their clothings.
Any suggestion?
Also I was told that if I were to refer by an existing costumer, I'll get 15% off on first purchase and the referree will receive 20%.
Is that true? if so, is there any BFers want to refer me as their friend?
You can PM me.
Thanks.
Gary

Well their bibs are pretty good, as for nutrition what are you looking for? I really like their gels, you can save a bit if you buy a jug and use it with the flusk. Their drinks I am not a big fan of because of the taste, but that's a personal thing. You might like the taste.

I use the gels and Recoverite and really like then both. I've tried just about every brand and would rate hammer as good or better.

+1 on the bibs, they are the most comfortable I have ever worn. I use Perpetuom and HEED on long rides (centuries and doubles) cuz it's not so sweet and have had less GI upset with it.
Riding (and sweating) a lot in the desert I searched for a good electrolyte supplement without much success until I found Endurolytes. They work very well!

I like hammer products. They work. The perpetuem and sustained energy don't taste the best though, but it really works. HEED tastes OK.

Ha! You have been a control in a double blind experiment. That stuff you have been drinking is really raccoon urine.

Gel is gel to me, but I buy the hammer gel because it's the only one I can find in the large containers. But I don't really use gel that much anymore.

I tried their recoverite, which seemed fine, but I've gone to a home brew solution now.

I don't use liquid calories very often, but when I do, it is perpetuem, which I have been pleased with.

I currently use HEED, it seems to work OK.

when the containers empty, I'll probably go to something else...

I only use Hammer Gels (typically Espresso for the caffeine and Apple because my LBS usually has it) and I am a HUGE fan of Perpetum (SP?). I also have the shortsleeve full zip jersey. It is my fav jersey. The fit is tight and perfect; plus I like unzipping it way down on hot climbs and showing off my albino white chest. Makes all the girls swoon.
