Mouthpiece

Double jointed

The double jointed mouthpiece is one of the most common mouthpieces on the market. This mouthpiece has two joints, is more shaped to the mouth, and sits a little looser in the horse's mouth. This bit exerts pressure on the tongue, the bars, and the corners of the mouth. Caution with narrow lower jaws! The hinge points can press on the bars, which can lead to sores. The double jointed bit exerts more pressure on the tongue compared to single jointed bits.

Sidepiece

D-ring

Due to the characteristics of this bit, it is wonderfully suited for young horses that are still a bit inexperienced. The shape and weight of the sidepieces ensure a quiet and comfortable position in the mouth. Due to the shape of the D-rings, optimal lateral stability is provided. Good and quiet rein handling is facilitated by the large ring. The larger rings provide a little more leverage on the poll.
