Product Information

Full details

The Lorina Flexi Mullen Mouth Continental 3 Ring is designed for riders seeking a gentle yet versatile bit for horses with sensitive mouths or young horses transitioning to training. By utilizing a flexible, warmer synthetic material instead of traditional cold stainless steel, it provides a more comfortable experience for the horse. The primary benefit is improved acceptance of the bit, though users should note that the synthetic material is subject to wear from chewing and requires regular inspection.

FAQs

Is this bit suitable for all horses?

It is specifically recommended for young horses or those with sensitive mouths, but it is not recommended for horses known for chewing through synthetic equipment.

How do the three rings work?

The top ring is for the cheekpiece, and the lower two rings offer different levels of leverage depending on where you attach your reins.

Does the bit get cold in winter?

No, the flexi material remains warmer to the touch than stainless steel, making it much more comfortable for the horse in cold weather.

How often should I replace the bit?

Replace it whenever you notice structural damage, deep cracks, or sharp edges resulting from chewing.

Can I use this for competition?

Please check the specific rulebook of your discipline's governing body, as some organizations have restrictions on bit materials and designs.

Troubleshooting

Visible bite marks on the bit

Check if the horse is excessively chewing; if the marks are sharp or deep, the bit should be replaced to prevent mouth injury.

Bit looks discolored

Natural staining can occur with synthetic bits. Clean thoroughly with a mild soap and warm water; if the material remains structurally sound, minor discoloration is cosmetic.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Warmer to the touch than metal for better horse acceptance
  • Even pressure distribution via the Mullen mouth design
  • Versatile leverage options with 3 rings
  • Ideal for sensitive mouths or young horses

Cons

  • Synthetic material can be damaged by chewing
  • Less durable than solid stainless steel bits
  • Not suitable for horses with a history of aggressively chewing through bits

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When installing, ensure the bit is properly adjusted for height to avoid hitting the teeth. Because the bit is made of a specialized flexi-material, avoid using it with horses known for heavy chewing, as the synthetic surface can develop rough edges. To clean, simply rinse the bit with warm water after every ride to remove saliva and debris. Periodically check the material for any signs of cracking or deep bite marks. If the surface becomes damaged or sharp, replace the bit immediately to protect the horse's mouth.
