Unless you are riding long and very hard, I'd question if you even need any supplementation of electrolytes. However they can enhance ever so slightly your performance if you are doing a shorter stuff. But again, not really needed as you'll get electrolytes from many things eaten or drank.

I use to just put a pinch of NaCl in my bottles. Salt. Plain old table salt. It's generally considered the main one you need.

I do put Hammer Nutrition's Enduralytes Extreme Powder in my bottles. Just a half scoop or tad more if I'm using their Heed, as it already has some electrolytes. And 3/4 to a full scoop if using my own maltodextrin mix. Their product is a little pricey. Might could just get by using some Morton's Lite Salt as it has several electrolytes in it's composition.
