SmoothRide Loose Ring Bradoon (Final Sale)

SmoothRide bits are made of stainless steel bit that has been sanded down for horses comfort. This bit features a curved mouthpiece as well as cleverly designed lozenge with a copp er roller which continues along the anatomical shape of the bit. The curvature in this bit creates a mild tongue relief if worn in the classic way. The loose ring, eggbutt, elevator and gag bits of this line can be used “upside down” to provide mild bar relief and give you a hint whether your horse prefers more pressure to be directed towards the center or the side of the tongue above bars. We find this to be a great starter bit and a less expensive alternative to other premium bits as it is versatile, generally well accepted and tends to take up less space in the horse’s mouth without being unnecessarily harsh than many other alternatives. We find that horses that resist the flat links often seen in classic double jointed snaffles tend to like the smoothness of this bit. This bit features a bradoon cheekpiece which is often used in combination with a Weymouth curb mouthpiece in a double bridle for upper levels of dressage training and competition. We recommend sizing up quarter size and using bit guards if necessary with this cheek piece. Mouthpiece thickness: 15mm Ring Size: 55mm (inside to inside), 60mm (outside to outside) Please Note: This product is being discontinued and is therefore final sale, no returns or exchanges apply.
