🐎 Why choose this product?
The four-ring version offers an additional rein position compared with the three-ring version, allowing the leverage to be adjusted more precisely. ⚠️ The supplier intends this bit for horses that are hard-mouthed. Leverage multiplies the pressure applied by the rider's hand: this is not a beginner's bit, and changing bits never replaces consistent training.
🧴 Directions for use
Choose the rein position when attaching them: the middle ring for a moderate effect, or the lower ring for a stronger effect. Always start with the gentlest position. ⚠️ A leverage bit requires a measured hand and is preferably used with connectors, which are mandatory in competition with a Pessoa. Measure the width from one ring to the other with the mouthpiece stretched out. ⚠️ A bit that is too narrow pinches the corners of the mouth; one that is too wide moves around in the mouth and knocks against the teeth. Allow approximately half a centimetre of mouthpiece to show on each side.
