Bits

The Universal cheek provides a number of rein options including the option of a curb strap. But whatever option you choose, the flattened underside of the FlexZ cannons with their anatomy-inspired recesses are held parallel to the tongue whatever riding activity you enjoy.

The NS Tranz mouthpiece is ergonomically designed for both comfort and communication. A very popular comfortable mouthpiece that promotes feel and responsiveness encouraging a soft sustainable contact.

The loose ring cheek has greater movement than a fixed cheek which can discourage fixing and leaning. The loose brass alloy discs in the centre of the bit can help to soothe a fussy tongued horse.

Flexi bits are soft and much warmer to the touch than metal bits. Ideal for younger horses or horses with a more sensitive mouth. Allows the rider to have two different levels of leverage and poll pressure depending on the needs of the horse with the lower ring providing the most leverage.

The hard rubber used in this pelham allows less movement but is still thick and gentle. Can be used with double reins or pelham roundings.

Hanging cheeks help to encourage flexion, whilst the lozenge prevents the nutcracker effect of a single joint.

The loose ring cheek has greater movement than a fixed cheek which can discourage fixing and leaning. The loose brass alloy discs in the centre of the bit can help to soothe a fussy tongued horse.

The Dutch Gag has a French link in it which means pressure is applied to both sides of the tongue.

The loose ring cheek can discourage fixing and leaning as it has much more movement than a fixed cheek to follow the angle of the tongue. The shaped lozenge offers even pressure and encourages mouthing and contact. Mouthpiece thickness: 15mm. Cheek height: 65mm.

Sweet iron and copper encourages salivation and produces a pleasant taste in the horse's mouth. Raised copper ribs can help to prevent the horse taking too much of a hold. Three rings offer leverage options to increase severity.

The French link in this bit means pressure is applied to both sides of the tongue. Some horses with low palates may find this bit more comfortable as it is unlikely to make contact with the palate when the bit comes in to action. The full cheeks assist with steering.

The loose rings discourage the horse from leaning on the bit whilst the lozenge softens the contact and the copper helps encourage mouthing.
