With a selected range of pony bits, even the smaller four-legged sports partners, such as ponies and Icelandic horses, get their money's worth. Thanks to smaller rings (45 mm for shetties, 55 mm for ponies or Icelandic horses) and bit thicknesses of 12 to 14 mm, these bits fit perfectly into petite mouths. The bit widths from 95 to 115 mm offer a wide selection to find the right bit for every pony. Thanks to their ergonomic shapes and innovative designs, the SPRENGER pony bits enable fine and precise communication between rider and pony.
In the following, we present some of the best-known SPRENGER pony bits and their special advantages.
TURNADO pony bit
TheTURNADO pony bit differs from conventional models due to the 45° rotated inclination of the centerpiece. This special shape enables an even distribution of pressure in the pony's mouth, which ensures a gentle and precise action. Unlike other single jointed bits, which often exert uneven pressure on the edges of the tongue, the TURNADO bit ensures a balanced action without regular turning of the bit. This bit is availablePony bit in stainless steel or SENSOGAN and is suitable for ponies that require fine aids.

KK ULTRA PONYGEBISS
Like allKK ULTRA bitsis also theKK ULTRA pony bit double jointed and is characterized by its shortened and 45° forward inclined centrepiece. This shape adapts perfectly to the anatomy of the pony's mouth and enables gentle but effective aids to be given. The fine action of this bit improves communication between rider and pony, resulting in a more precise and comfortable riding style.
WH ULTRA pony bit
TheWH ULTRA pony bit uses the anatomy of the KK ULTRA bit as a basis. It combines the anatomically adapted shape with a roller in the centerpiece that rolls over the pony's tongue and stimulates the sense of touch. This encourages the pony to play with the bit, which promotes mouth activity and chewing. This feature leads to a relaxation of the jaw muscles and a looser topline, which increases permeability when riding.
Dynamic RS pony bit
DasDynamic RS bit offers an ergonomic shape and a 45° inclined centerpiece. These features ensure a precise and gentle effect on the pony's mouth. The special shape avoids pressure on the sensitive palate, making the bit ideal for ponies with sensitive tongues. The Dynamic RS pony bit can promote a trusting contact, especially in ponies that tend to have a thicker tongue. In the variant as Olive head bit for ponies it is particularly suitable for ponies that have fewer lips, as this prevents the corners of the mouth from being pinched.
novocontact pony bit
Dasnovocontact bitimpresses with its unique oval shape, which offers a larger contact surface on the tongue while maintaining a low bit thickness. This innovative design is ideal for ponies and Icelandic horses that have little space in their mouth. The wide surface lies gently on the tongue when the bit is lightly leaned on, and when the reins are tightened, the contact surface is reduced to allow a more targeted action. The novocontact pony bit, made from SENSOGAN, is particularly suitable for ponies that have difficulty approaching the hand correctly. Single jointed novocontact bits are ideal for sensitive ponies, while the double jointed novocontact bits for ponies are recommended for ponies that sometimes get strong, but are still sensitive to excessive impact.
MAX Control Pony Bit
TheMAX Control BitOffers a clever solution for ponies that require a stronger bit in certain situations. It works like a normal double jointed bit when the reins are relaxed. When the reins are tightened, it locks and acts like a bar, giving the rider more control in difficult situations. As soon as the contact becomes lighter again, the bit returns to its original, gentle function.
Pronamic pony bit
Like all othersPronamic bits the pony version was also developed in collaboration with renowned riders and bit specialists to provide ponies with a better contact. It is characterized by an anatomically curved shape that offers the pony's mouth more tongue freedom. This special design helps ponies to approach the hand more easily in a relative upright position.
The forward-facing tongue clearance reduces pressure on the lower bars, making the bit particularly suitable for ponies with sensitive mouths or thin tongues. The ergonomic shape of the Pronamic pony bit allows precise and effective aids to be given without overstraining the pony. It is ideal for ponies that need more support when leaning in, but are still sensitive to excessive aids.

Made of stainless steel and available in different mouthpiece variants, the Satinox pony bit an ergonomic shape that leaves enough room for the pony tongue. This bit ensures even pressure distribution and therefore enables precise and gentle action.
