The bit range from Trust Equestrian provides soft but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Inno Sense Hackamore Combination short tongue port bar medium 20mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The bit Trust Bit Inno Sense Hackamore Combination short tongue port bar medium 20mm 14.5 is made of plastic and equipped with Hackamore shanks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The hardness of the mouthpiece material is rather medium, meaning it is slightly flexible. The mouthpiece has a width of 14.5 centimeters. This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for very large warmbloods.
Bit thickness
The bit is 20mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the area of the horse's lips. This makes it a rather thick mouthpiece.
For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is rather between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, cold-blooded horses and Shire Horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.
When choosing the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.
Bit material
Plastic
Food-grade plastic is used for bits, meaning no plasticizer is used and it is well tolerated by horses. The particularly smooth texture ensures that the bit can slide easily in the mouth, even with little saliva production.

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.
Cheekpiece
Hackamore
The hackamore is a bitless bridle that focuses its action on the bridge of the nose. Additionally, when the reins are taken up, it also acts on the poll and chin groove.
