Water for cyclists · Sports Hydration
Every kilometre, the right water.
You want to finish the long ride as strong as you started it. We make the water for that: high in minerals, with electrolytes, and nothing sweet.
We get it
Long rides ask a lot
You feel it before you see it
Run a little dry and the ride gets harder: heavier legs, a higher heart rate, the climb that felt easy last week. By the time you are thirsty, you are already behind.
Hours in the saddle
Heat, hills and wind: on a long ride you lose water and minerals with every kilometre, and plain water only puts back the water.
Sticky bottles, slimy packs
Sugary sports drinks leave your bottle, cage and hydration pack sticky, and the bladder slimy if you forget to rinse it.
A syrupy feel on the bike
Sweet drinks get heavy in the mouth after an hour. You want something you will keep drinking.
The water for you
Sports Hydration
Every WaterHero water starts as ultra-purified water. Sports Hydration is our very high-mineral water with electrolytes: about ten times the minerals of our mineral water.
No sugar, no colouring, no syrupy feel. For long rides, hard sessions and demanding days, and our mineral water for every day in between.

How to use our water on a ride
1 · The day before
Start full
Drink mineral water through the day, and a glass with dinner. Fill your bottles the night before so they are cold and ready.
2 · Before you roll
Top up
A 500 ml bottle of Sports Hydration in the hour before the start, sipped, not gulped.
3 · On the bike
Little and often
A few sips every 15 to 20 minutes, before you feel thirsty. Long or hot ride: a 750 ml bottle in the cage and a spare in the pocket.
4 · After the ride
Put it back
Finish a bottle of Sports Hydration as you cool down, then back to mineral water for the rest of the day.
Carry it anywhere
No sugar means nothing sticky: in the bottle, the cage, the backpack or the hydration pack. Rinse with water and it is clean.
A guide, not a rule: every rider is different, so listen to your body and your coach.
