novocontact Loose Ring snaffle 16 mm single jointed - Sensogan

The single-jointed bit is the classic bit par excellence. It acts on the lower jaw via the tongue. When the reins are tightened, the joint in the middle of the mouthpiece sets up slightly, relieving the middle of the tongue and directing more pressure to the edges of the tongue. Because our bits are anatomically shaped, they provide the best comfort and avoid an unpleasant nutcracker effect.

We'll start in order: If you want to check if your horse's bit is big enough, you should take a look at the mouth angles while the reins are not tightened. If the bit has loose rings, when fitted correctly, there should be no more than half an inch of space between the mouth angle and the bit ring. Also make sure that the ring is always free to move and does not pinch the mouth angle.
