Mouthpiece
Straight Bar Bits
A straight bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A straight bar mouthpiece has a sharper effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.
Shank
Driving Curbs
Driving curbs, like the Stübben STEELtec Post Curb Bit with Twisted Mouthpiece, are particularly suitable for the needs of carriage horses. There are several types of driving curbs.
Liverpool Curb Bit The Liverpool curb bit is a classic driving bit and offers several options for rein attachment. The Liverpool curb bit is usually available with short or long shanks. It is also possible to tilt the angle of the tongue arch forward. This forward tilt relieves pressure on the bars and acts more on the tongue.
Post Curb Bit The post curb bit is also a classic driving curb and commonly used for agricultural harnessing. It offers two options for rein attachment. Attachment in the lower ring creates a leverage effect. When attached in the upper ring, this leverage effect is absent, and the bit becomes a snaffle bit.
