Driving curbs

Driving curbs like the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Liverpool 2-Slots medium bar are especially suitable for the needs of carriage horses. There are several types of driving curbs.

Liverpool Curb The Liverpool curb is a classic driving bit and offers several options for rein attachment. The Liverpool curb 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 the bars and acts more on the tongue.

Post Curb The Post Curb is also a classic driving curb and commonly used for agricultural harnessing. It offers two options for rein attachment. It is buckled in the lower ring to achieve a leverage effect. When buckled in the upper ring, this leverage effect is absent, and the bit becomes a ring bit.

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.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
