Best possible control

when you need them

What exactly is a leverage effect - and how does it develop in the horse's mouth? If you choose a bit with a leverage effect, the pressure created by the rein action is distributed over several points of action on the horse's head - for example the poll. If, for example, you need the greatest possible control on a course, this effect can be useful to stay in communication with your horse even if it wants to pull away. But beware: riders should always be careful never to exert too much or too long an influence on the horse's poll. That's why we only recommend bits with leverage for experienced riders with controlled hand action.

Leverage effect

A sure instinct is required here! Because bits with leverage allow the rider to exert pressure on the horse's sensitive neck, we only recommend these models for experienced riders. You should have a balanced seat that is independent of the hand and be able to guide the reins sensitively. If your horse generally tends to have its head too low or withdraws downwards from the aids, bits with a leverage effect tend to be counterproductive. They are much more suitable for horses that withdraw from the rider's aids by lifting upwards strongly.

Light neck pressure for concise communication

Multi-ring, 3-ring and snaffle bridles: it's easy to lose track, isn't it? But all these models have one thing in common. The pressure created by the tightening of the reins is first distributed via the tongue to the lower jaw and finally to the poll. They therefore promise better control, for example when you are tackling a course with your horse. In particular, if your horse pulls away with its head upwards, the effect on the poll allows you to get back into communication with your horse.

as flexible as you are

Many riders appreciate 3-ring bits above all because they can be buckled in so many different ways. This allows you to individually determine the intensity of the leverage effect - after all, the solution has to suit you and your horse. As a rule of thumb: the longer the "leverage path" of the side piece and the deeper the reins are buckled, the stronger the pressure on your horse's neck. And: The greater the leverage, the slower the bit reacts to the accepting and yielding rider's hand.

3-ring buckle 2

Double rein guide

double accuracy

With 3-ring bits, the pressure exerted on the horse's neck is even more pronounced than, for example, with fillies or multitrands. Why? Because the leverage effect is greater due to the length of the side piece. This is why you can ideally use the 3-ring bit with two pairs of reins. This way you only influence the tongue and lower jaw with the main rein in the large ring. The second pair of reins, strapped in the lower ring, can exert pressure on the poll via the cheekpiece as required. However, the important prerequisite for this is a sensitive rider's hand. We therefore do not recommend this bit if you are inexperienced or unbalanced.

Unwanted dives?

A chin strap can help!

Would you like additional cover? No problem! An additional chin strap can help to limit the leverage effect of your 3-ring bit. The strap is simply buckled into the upper ring along the lower jaw. It has two functions: Firstly, it limits the neck pressure and secondly, it acts on the lower jaw. In this way, it can counteract your horse "diving" downwards and prevent it from withdrawing from your aids by holding its head too low.

Your choice

for stormy horses

The 3-ring bit is probably one of the most versatile models. This is because it can be used in a variety of ways thanks to the different rein buckling options. Because the mouthpiece can slide freely in the ring - just as it does with a water snaffle - the rider can control the poll pressure independently of the pressure on the tongue. This special feature has proven to be an advantage, especially with very impetuous horses that react sensitively to the constriction of the tongue. Whenever you have to apply more pressure by hand, does your horse bang its head or go against the reins even more? Then this bit could be what you are looking for.

A question of

Pliability

Whether sensitive or strong: bar bits are suitable for very different types of horses, depending on the model. The choice is huge and the way they work can vary enormously depending on the model. But wait a minute: how do you know whether a bar bit might be suitable for you and your horse? Basically, this type of bit is less suitable if your horse is difficult to turn, position and bend. This is because as soon as you have to use one-sided rein aids, the bit tilts. A bar bit is therefore particularly suitable if you have an even connection with both hands and are able to ride your horse through turns primarily with thigh and weight aids.

Softie or tough guy?

In general, the softer the bar, the softer the action. If the bar bit is yielding and flexible, it is also recommended for more sensitive horses that occasionally tense up and become impermeable. If it is rigid and hard, you can use it for strong horses that pull against the bit more often.
