Manufacturer Information

Mouthpiece

Double jointed

A double jointed mouthpiece is a very common type of mouthpiece. This mouthpiece has two hinges, is shaped more towards the mouth, and lies 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 joints can press on the bars if the lower jaw is narrow. The double jointed bit exerts more pressure on the tongue compared to single jointed bits.

Cheekpiece

D-Ring

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