Cheek Piece
Olive Head
Olive head bits have fixed, oval-shaped rings at the ends. These provide a little more stability in the mouth, which means the USG Snaffle Bit with Olive Head Cheeks, Single-Jointed lies more quietly in the horse's mouth.
Mouthpiece
Single-jointed
The USG Snaffle Bit with Olive Head Cheeks, Single-Jointed has a joint in the middle, which applies less pressure to the tongue than a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. The single-jointed mouthpiece is the most popular mouthpiece on the market.
