A Sun Wheel is a bitless bridle that can be individually adjusted to meet the horse’s needs through its versatile adjustment options. The reins can be attached to various small rings on the Sun Wheel, allowing for precise adjustments of the pressure on the horse’s nose, which can be made sharper or milder. The noseband is softly padded and can be adjusted tighter or looser using the bridle hooks. The size of the Sun Wheel can also be adjusted via the chin strap. Bitless and other bridles should always correspond to the training level of both horse and rider. We recommend bitless bridles only to riders who have mastered an independent seat, separate from the reins. Legally, bitless bridles carry a liability risk as the ability to influence the horse is less than with a bridle that uses a bit.
