Mouthpiece

double jointed

A double jointed mouthpiece is a very common mouthpiece. This mouthpiece has two joints, is more shaped towards the mouth and lies somewhat looser in the horse's mouth. This bit exerts pressure on the tongue, the bars and the corners of the mouth. Be careful with narrow lower jaws! The hinge points can press on the bars, which can lead to sores. Compared to a single jointed bit, this bit exerts more pressure on the tongue.

Shank

Driving Weymouth

Driving Weymouths like the Stübben STEELtec Easy Control Post Weymouth, double jointed, are particularly suitable for the needs of carriage horses. There are several types of driving Weymouths.

Liverpool Weymouth The Liverpool Weymouth is a classic driving bit and offers several possibilities for rein attachment. The Liverpool Weymouth is usually available with short or long cheeks. It is also possible to tilt the angle of the tongue arch forward. This forward inclination relieves the bars and acts more on the tongue.

Post Weymouth The Post Weymouth is also a classic driving Weymouth and commonly used for country harness. It offers two possibilities for rein attachment. When attached to the lower ring, it creates a leverage effect. When attached to the upper ring, this leverage effect is absent, and the bit becomes a snaffle bit.
