Weetabix is a medium speed carb (GI = 70) as is Shredded Wheat, Shreddies, Grapenuts, Cornflakes, Rice Krispies etc.
Oats, N.A.S. Muesli & All Bran are slow carbs.

Oats have a reasonable fat content too, which will slow them that bit more.

in a way you could call them slow as they're medium fast so slow compared to glucose (GI 100 i think) but still not a proper slow carb tho

For bulking, yes. For cutting, medium & fast carbs may cause excessive appetite due to rebound low blood glucose.
