More details

This is a black steel training bit featuring a copper wire-wrapped lifesaver mouthpiece. The copper inlay is designed to encourage salivation, which can lead to a more relaxed jaw and better acceptance of the bit. The "lifesaver" style offers a mouthpiece that is linked in the center, providing a degree of flexibility while still offering control. The cheekpieces are curved and designed to offer leverage, common in training bits. This bit is suitable for intermediate to advanced riders working with horses that require a gentle but effective communication tool. The combination of steel and copper materials aims to provide durability and a palatable mouthpiece.

FAQ

Q: What is the purpose of the copper inlay?

A: The copper inlay is designed to be palatable to horses, encouraging salivation. Increased salivation can help to relax the horse's jaw and lead to a softer, more responsive mouth.

Q: Is this bit suitable for beginners?

A: This is a training bit with cheekpieces that offer leverage, making it more suitable for intermediate to advanced riders who have experience with bit control and communication. Beginners may find it too strong if not used correctly.

Q: How should this bit be cared for?

A: Clean the bit after each use with water and a soft cloth to remove debris. Avoid harsh chemicals. The copper inlay may develop a patina over time, which is normal. Inspect regularly for any signs of wear or damage.
