“At GQ-6, we’re passionate about fueling the athlete’s body in the best way possible, with clean, digestible hydration for optimal performance,” said Richard Hiraga, founder and CEO of GQ-6. “We provide the fuel to support the athlete, and Speedfil provides a sleek system to stay hydrated on the bike. Our shared goal to take hydration to the next level makes this a great working relationship into the future.”
“As athletes ourselves, we realize that if you do not drink you cannot drive and performance suffers. We design our products for maximum efficiency to aid speed via aerodynamics and delivery of hydration” said David Dietterle, Co-founder of Speedfil. “We are asked all the time what product(s) we suggest with our systems and without hesitation we recommend GQ-6. We have been using GQ-6 for several seasons, and when the opportunity to partner with their team arose we simply said, absolutely. GQ-6 supplies the fuel and Speedfil supplies the system to deliver it to the athletes.”
