Sale price$70.90 CAD Regular price$84.90 CAD

Out of stock

Please note that these bits are in good demo condition with minor signs of wear and no returns or exchanges apply.

Our ComfortWave mouthpiece features a curve to conform to the shape of the horse's mouth and encourage acceptance of contact. The lozenge features a larger than usual surface area with no sharp edges to distribute pressure evenly on the tongue.

German silver develops a sweet taste when in contact with the horse's saliva and has a slightly softer and warmer feel compared to stainless steel or other metals commonly used for bits. This characteristic can make the bit more comfortable for some horses, as it may feel gentler against their sensitive mouth tissues and improve relaxation.

Pelham cheekpiece creates a curb bit that applies pressure both on the poll and the back of the chin through the use of curb chain (included) or a leather chin strap. Baby Pelham is a variation with shorter shanks at only 50mm which create smaller leverage effect than traditional 70mm shanks.

This bit is typically used for horses advanced in their training who require the precision the curb bits offer.

Must be used with a converter or a double rein.

Mouthpiece thickness: 16mm (4.75" and up), 13mm (Up to 4.5")

Lower Shank Height: 50mm

This product is final sale, no returns or exchanges apply.

How To Wear It

Size information goes on the left (mounting side). Logo on the right, with the arrow on the “A” pointing up.

Comfortwave Mouthpiece

The ComfortWave mouthpiece features a curve to conform to the shape of the horse's mouth and encourage acceptance of contact. The lozenge features a larger than usual surface area with no sharp edges to distribute pressure evenly on the tongue. A gentle bit it balances the pressure over the tongue and bars.

Baby Pelham Cheekpiece

Pelham combines the action of the double bridle into a single bit amplifying the action of the mouthpiece and provding additional pressure and lift. It offers a high degree of precision and control by exerting pressure on the lips, the chin and somewhat on the poll. Pelhams can be used with a double rein to separate the lever action of the curb and the snaffle as in the double bridle, or a converter which would mediate the action between the snaffle and the curb rein to somewhere in the middle. The curb chain must be fitted so that shanks cannot move past 45 degrees upon engagement of the reins for correct bit action.

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.
