Manufacturer Information

Mouthpiece

double jointed

The double jointed mouthpiece is one of the most common mouthpieces on the market. This mouthpiece has two joints, 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. This bit should not be used on horses 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.

Sidepiece

Lift bits

The lift bit can be ridden with two reins. The second rein, with increased pressure, causes the bit to tilt and pull up into the commissure of the mouth. This means increased action. Very good for horses that tend to lean on the bit. The bit also supports the horse's natural self-carriage.
