Trust Mouthpiece Leather Rod Baby Pelham Straight 20mm 11.5

Trust Bit Leather Straight Bar Baby Pelham 20mm 11.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20 millimeters at its thickest point. So it is rather a thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-bloods and Shire horses rather 18mm and larger.

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.

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the greatest care and made from the best materials. Today we would like to present the Trust Bit Leather Straight Bar Baby Pelham 20mm 11.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

Bit Thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for athletic thoroughbreds.

Side Piece

Baby Pelham

The Baby Pelham is a variation of the Pelham, which is ideal for accustoming horses to the leverage in the poll, as it has shorter cheekpieces. These significantly reduce the leverage of the Trust Bit Leather Straight Bar Baby Pelham 20mm 11.5 and make it more comfortable for the horse.

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 action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Material

Leather

The acceptance of leather bits is extraordinarily high. Practically every horse "likes" it! Since leather is a natural product, it stimulates salivation and chewing activity. The bit slides easily in the mouth, thus increasing well-being. Leather mouthpieces are usually vegetable-tanned and hand-stitched.

Our leather mouthpiece is particularly suitable for young and extremely sensitive horses. Even horses that are completely resistant to bits usually accept a leather bit and can relearn to approach the bit confidently.

Care instructions for leather: The mouthpiece should be soaked in cooking oil for a few hours before first use. Repeat this process as soon as the leather appears dry. Before each use, you should briefly soak it in clear water and clean it thoroughly after use, as saliva can erode the leather.
