Helpful tips, apply pressure to the tongue and bars when pressure is applied to the reins. Curb chain tightness allows for the customization of pressure. Start loose and increase tightness for additional control or increased signaling. This bit falls in our Stage C category; Stage C bits are used on horses that respond well to poll pressure and neck reining. All leverage bits should be used with a curb chain to function correctly. Without a curb chain, a shanked bit can rotate back toward the rider. Curb chains should stop the shank’s rotation at approximately 45 degrees. Cheeks are made of medical-grade stainless steel to prevent rust and guarantee longevity. Each bit is closely inspected by a team of expert craftsmen who pride themselves on the quality of their workmanship. 8 1/2" Cheek, 5" Mouth, Gag Action. Store indoors or in a tack room, wipe or brush off debris after each use and check your bit for wear before each use. 0118-5000
