Rider Village Tack

Medium port that allows more room for the tongue and helps to relive pressure.  This bit is very table in the horse's mouth.  12mm.

Full cheeks of this bit assist with steering, whilst the lozenge prevents the nutcracker action of a single joint. Mouthpiece thickness: 14mm. Cheek height: 160mm. Blue sweet iron mouthpieces oxidise easily to create warmth with a sweet taste which helps with bit acceptance and encourages salivation. Please note the blue colour will fade with use. Stainless steel is used for the cheeks due to it being durable, easy to clean and resistance to rust.

The D ring is designed to aid steering, but does not have the cheek pressure that the full cheek has. The D ring is sometimes used instead of an eggbutt to stop the bit cheeks slipping into the mouth, when turning.

The shape of the ring provides a quiet and neutral position in the horses mouth. Therefore this bit is wonderful for young or inexperienced horses. They receive optimal lateral support and guidance through the rings.

Soft - very supple and pleasant in the mouth with a flexible steel core giving high security, particularly for sensitive or young horse

Hard/Firm – the material is firm and no-flex whilst very pleasant in the mouth, for very strong or horses that lean. A less cumbersome alternative to Vulcanite.

D Ring snaffle with a joint roller in the middle
