Composition: Round leather. Important note to our clients: leather bits are not guaranteed against bites even after the first use. Effect: this bit has an action on the horse's balance. It makes the horse rebalance and transfer its weight to the hindquarters. The larger the rings are, the stronger the gag action is. The fixed Eggbutt rings give a little more lever action. Leather Jump'In bits are very soft and comfortable for horses. Unlike stainless steel, leather prevents too cold contact. Tips: this bit needs special cheek pieces and can be used directly with two reins, with bit loops or with four reins. The round leather cannon prevents too cold contact in the horse's mouth. It also makes the connection between the horse's mouth and the rider's hand more flexible. The cannon is covered with leather to prevent too cold contact in the horse's mouth and to offer more comfort. Maintenance advice: rinse the bit after each use to prevent any residue deposit and to avoid your horse from feeling any discomfort. Oil the leather with a vegetable oil (Warning: do not use neatsfoot oil or any other synthetic oil) to keep a soft and nice contact for your horse. 18 mm cannon/70 mm rings
