In stock

Our ComfortArch Hunter D-Ring features a mullen mouth design with an anatomically positioned port crafted from high-quality German silver. This gentle copper alloy develops a warm, sweet taste when in contact with saliva, encouraging acceptance and relaxation.

The curved mullen design with integrated port provides essential tongue relief while maintaining stability - perfect for horses that tend to play with or resist more mobile mouthpiece designs. The mid-part of the mouthpiece is engineered at a slight angle that rotates to lay flat against the tongue when reins are engaged. This feature encourages the horse to seek contact further encouraging stability.

The fixed D-ring cheeks offer clear directional guidance through subtle contact with the sides of the face, making this an excellent choice for jumping and flatwork.

German silver's natural warming properties make it particularly appealing for sensitive horses, while the solid, port-enhanced mouthpiece helps prevent tongue evasions and promotes steadier connection. The D-ring cheeks provide the security of a fixed ring with enhanced lateral control compared to regular eggbutt designs.

We recommend this bit for:

  • Horses that need tongue relief but find jointed bits too mobile
  • Sensitive mouths that respond well to warmer metal alloys
  • Riders seeking clear communication through a stable contact
  • Show ring presentation where classic styling is valued

The ComfortArch's thoughtful design ensures optimal comfort and clear communication between horse and rider. Fully dressage legal.

ComfortArch Mouthpiece

The curved mullen design of the ComfortArch with integrated port provides essential tongue relief while maintaining stability - perfect for horses that tend to play with or resist more mobile mouthpiece designs. The mid-part of the mouthpiece is engineered at a slight angle that rotates to lay flat against the tongue when reins are engaged maximising surface area with bars and tongue.

Hunter Dee Cheekpiece

The D Ring cheekpiece is a gentle yet versatile choice and is suitable for all training levels. It can be useful to think of a D Ring cheekpiece as a hybrid between the eggbutt and the full cheek offering both stability and enhanced lateral control by applying some pressure on the cheeks when steering. D-Ring cheekpieces are particularly popular in the Western and Hunter rings.

German Silver

German silver is a copper-rich alloy made of nickel, copper, and zinc that promotes salivation and offers a warm feel in the mouth. It is more resistant to oxidation than sweet iron but still encourages bit acceptance due to its composition. While it does not rust, it may tarnish over time. To maintain it, clean with warm water and mild soap after each use, avoid harsh abrasives to preserve the finish, and polish occasionally to prevent discoloration.

Good bit for the price!

I bought this as a cheaper version of the Bombers happy tongue. It is a bit thicker so the horse it was intended for didn't like it, but it is still well constructed so I am using it on others who do like it. Still happy with the purchase.

Wonderful!!!

My girl has never been as comfortable in a bit as she is in this one! She seems to really like the stability of being non-jointed and the D rings just make it that much more stable. She has plenty of room for her tongue and softly licks and chews it getting perfect lipstick foam.
