Bit Thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for a normal warmblood.

Cheek Piece

Elevator Bit

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

Mouthpiece

Dr. Bristol

The Dr. Bristol mouthpiece is a double-jointed mouthpiece with a plate as the center piece. The center plate in a Dr. Bristol is angled and flat-edged. It acts mainly on the tongue with a sharp action due to the straight, angled plate and with a smaller angle on the bars. This mouthpiece helps with strong horses.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed to develop surface rust when they come into contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses readily accept Sweet Iron bits as a result.
