With a double-jointed bit, the mouthpiece consists of three parts, and the central section lies flat on the tongue. This creates more pressure on the tongue than a single-jointed bit, but eliminates the V-shaped effect toward the palate. ⚠️ The supplier recommends this bit for horses that are hard-mouthed. A leverage effect multiplies the pressure applied by the rider’s hand: this is not a training bit, and changing the bit can never replace thorough schooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🧴 Usage advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou choose the rein position at the attachment point: 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 rounding straps, which are mandatory in competition when using a Pessoa. Measure the width from one ring to the other, with the mouthpiece stretched straight. ⚠️ 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. ⚠️ Check the condition of the plastic regularly: a mouthpiece that is cut or chewed must be replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BR","offers":[{"title":"13,5 cm","offer_id":58595493773647,"sku":"251096M000135","price":44.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/251096_M000_01.jpg?v=1787946786","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-pessoa-3-anneaux-double-brisure-br-combo-comfort-18-mm","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
