A lot of gear comes across our desks here at Pinkbike. Check Out is an occasional round up of everything our tech editors have gotten their hands on. Sometimes it’s products we’re doing long-term tests on, other times it’s stuff we’re stoked on but don’t have time to fully review. And, sometimes it’s crazy shit someone sent us unsolicited and we’re having a laugh.

Bare Performance Nutrition Key Lime Pie Protein Powder
A whey-casein protein blend containing 25 grams of protein per serving to improve recovery and build muscle.
Editor’s Note:
This stuff is bonkers. I’ve tried and tested a lot of protein powders in my day, but when mixed with milk, this is like drinking Key Lime Pie – and I’m here for it. There’s no hint of icky whey flavour or signature powdery texture on the tongue I’ve resigned myself to over the years. BPN have nailed it, and their other flavours include Cinnamon Roll, Blueberry Muffin & Nut Butter Blast (spoiler: they’re all amazing).
Features
• Supports improved recovery and muscle protein synthesis necessary to build lean muscle
• Great mixability, consistency and a variety of delicious flavors
• The perfect blend of protein: 88% fast-acting whey protein and 12% slow-digesting casein protein

Our approach was to create the most effective and best-tasting whey protein powder for athletes like us, starting with premium ingredients that stand up to the test. By using the perfect blend of protein powders (88% whey + 12% casein), it makes for a thicker, more consistent, and better-tasting product. We are confident that our protein powder is the best you will ever try! Not only does the small amount of casein protein powder improve taste and consistency, but it also makes it very easy to use in baking without drying out the end product! |
