    Actually sucks as chain lube...it's not as sticky as the others, but it is stickier than, say, chain lube. :rolleyes:

    YMMV - literally...



    (PS - for those who take everything @Mikie says as the honest truth, please do not add Tailwind to your gas tank. He may be slightly overstating the uses for TWs.

    Tailwind Nutrition is to be used exclusively for Mountain Biking, all other sports and activities are just lame. Tailwind is to be taken orally by mouth diluted in water (not beer and certainly not in a IPA), and not snorted like a good blend of Columbian... although mixing in a high octane drink does sound inviting. Tailwind Enemas are definitely out and no pics of such activity will be allowed to be posted. Claims of super human strength are most likely bogus and no stunts seen in Marvel Studio's produced movies should not be attempted by anyone other than paid professionals or really good amateurs, unless, the consumption of 4 to 5 beers on an empty stomach is obtained. A good example of that would be when someone says, "Hold my Beer... watch this", then some stunts are permitted for entertainment purposes. There is no need for Tailwind Nutrition if you ride an eBike, and there is no need for an eBike period. All rights are reserved.

    I've got a new bag of TW in the pantry and bummed I haven't had a ride to use it with. Can I ride without it? Of course. I'm a minimalist and don't even bring tools on short rides. Or even water. But I sweat a lot, TW's simple, and it takes the place of popping Enduralytes or dealing with other stuff. And if I don't use some sort of electrolyte replacement, I'm gonna cramp either on the ride or at home later.

    No free bags here, no check in the mail, no mischief, placebos don't produce electrolytes.. just advice taken from fellow imtbtrail's riders and results obvious and greatly appreciated.

    You forgot about the possible side effects: explosive diarrhea, decreased Testosterone(low T), vivid dreams/hallucinations, suicidal ideation(very rare reports), delusions of grandeur related to specific sports i.e. mtn biking (more common occurences)

    One last note:
    Tailwind is a perfect replacement for Rocket Fuel on your next launch...;)

    No. The Legend would NEVER buy in to this Tom Foolery.

    I like it! Very imaginative.

    Naturally, I pictured "tailwind" as an escaping fart...

    It's true. I lose my appetite when I drink the stuff. That tells me that this stuff should be used for prolonged adventures, when real food is not available for stretches of time.
