FAQs

Is this bit suitable for all horses?

While it suits many horses, especially young or sensitive ones, always observe the horse's response. It may not be suitable for horses who prefer a more defined bit action or those with very strong mouths.

How do I clean the bit?

Clean the bit thoroughly after each use with warm water and mild soap.

How often should I check the bit for damage?

Inspect the plastic mouthpiece before each use for any signs of wear or sharp edges.

Is this bit dressage legal?

Yes, this bit is dressage legal.

What is the purpose of the loose rings?

The loose rings allow the horse to move the mouthpiece in their mouth, encouraging relaxation and play.

What is the material of the mouthpiece?

The mouthpiece is made of hi-tech plastic molded around a stainless steel core.

Troubleshooting

Horse is not accepting the bit.

Check the fit of the bit, ensuring it's the correct size. Try adjusting the cheek pieces to see if it improves acceptance. Consult with a professional if issues persist.

Mouthpiece shows signs of wear or damage.

Discontinue use immediately and replace the bit. A damaged mouthpiece can cause injury.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
