Our Story
Agador's was created to deliver high-quality, well fitting and comfortable tack at a fair price.
We started this company in 2022 because it was really hard to find a bit for our mare Summer, affectionately called the Dragon.
Summer was a devoted head shaker despite dental and vet visits that found nothing wrong. As part of our journey finding tack that won't bother her we wanted a place to try out different kinds of bits that didn’t cost an arm and a leg.
About Agador's
The Best Bit Brand You've Never Heard Of
You've probably never heard of us before. That's because we're new, and we're taking a different approach to horse bits. From our workshop in Ontario, Canada, we're quietly designing some of the most thoughtful, comfortable bits that won't break the bank.
Our Story
It all started in 2022 with a mare named Summer—who affectionately was nicknamed "the Dragon." She's still with us, but no longer behaving like a dragon. Despite clean bills of health from vets and dentists, Summer was a devoted head-shaker. Our journey to find tack that worked for her revealed a gap in the market: the need for high-quality, well-fitting bits at fair prices.
What Makes Us Different
While other manufacturers focus on mass production or premium pricing, we've stayed true to our founding principle: creating bits that prioritize your horse's comfort and performance—without the luxury markup.
We're riders with a budget first, and we know firsthand how expensive it can get when "nothing seems to work." Building a bit collection shouldn't require a second mortgage, which is why we keep our prices competitive without compromising on quality.
