SmoothRide Eggbutt Bradoon

SmoothRide bits are made of stainless steel bits that have been sanded down for horses comfort. 

This bit features a curved mouthpiece as well as cleverly designed lozenge which continues along the anatomical shape of the bit. The curvature in this bit creates a mild tongue relief if worn in the classic way.

The loose ring, eggbutt, elevator and gag bits of this line can be used “upside down” to provide mild bar relief and give you a hint whether your horse prefers more pressure to be directed towards the center or the side of the tongue above bars.

We find this to be a great starter bit and a less expensive alternative to other premium bits as it is versatile, generally well accepted and tends to take up less space in the horse’s mouth without being unnecessarily harsh than many other alternatives.

We find that horses that resist the flat links often seen in classic double jointed snaffles tend to like the smoothness of this bit.

The eggbutt bradoon cheekpiece allows for greater stability, encouraging horses that can be inconsistent or distracted by movement to become more steady in the contact. The smaller sized ring is suitable for use in a double bridle.

Mouthpiece thickness: 15mm
