According to the product specialist

Pros
Mix of carbs, electrolytes, and proteins; suited for use before, during, and after exercise.
With 25.5 grams of carbohydrates per bar, the Ride Energy Bar is on par with other energy bars.
With 10.7 grams of protein per bar, the Ride Energy Bar contains the ideal amount of protein for post-exercise recovery.
Added magnesium contributes to normal muscle function.
Due to the large size (55 grams) one Maxim Energy Bar delivers approximately 35 grams of carbohydrates. It's a great source of energy!
The low protein content contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass without affecting the energy intake.
The Maxim Energy Bar contains minerals which support the fluid intake and balance.
With its mix of simple and complex carbohydrates, the Xtra Bar provides Xtra energy.
Also ideal for consumption prior to an event to maximise your carbohydrate store.
Cons
High level of protein and fats results in slower absorption by the body.
The large size makes the energy bar harder to consume at a high heart rate.
