When exposed to humid air and saliva, it develops a surface oxidation with a sweet taste that naturally stimulates salivation: the horse chews more and accepts the bit more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Double-jointed with a flat central plate. When the bit rotates, pressure is distributed between the center and the sides of the tongue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Two vertical cheeks on a fixed ring. These cheeks apply pressure to the side of the cheek and make steering significantly easier. The ring is smaller than that of a D-ring bit, so the leverage effect is reduced.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ More incisive mouthpiece than a standard double-jointed bit: the plate acts edge-on against the tongue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e📋 Technical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: full-cheek bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Sweet Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece: Dr. Bristol double-jointed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece thickness: 16 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes (mm): 115 \/ 125 \/ 135 \/ 145\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🐎 Why choose this product?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse with full awareness: the plate acts edge-on, making this a more incisive mouthpiece than it appears.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🧴 Usage advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚠️ Bit size is given in millimetres: this is the width of the mouthpiece from one ring to the other. A 125 measures 12.5 cm. Measure your horse's mouth with a bit ruler, or measure the bit it currently wears: too wide, the bit moves around and pinches; too narrow, it tightens the corners of the mouth. ⚠️ The upper cheeks are attached to the bridle with keepers to prevent them from tipping forward. ⚠️ The blue colour turns silver-grey or brown-grey with use, and an orangey film appears when the bit is left unused: this is normal Sweet Iron behaviour, not a defect. A wipe with a damp cloth is enough to remove it. This oxidation is not harmful.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TRUST","offers":[{"title":"115","offer_id":58640653582671,"sku":"E25482L050115","price":129.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"125","offer_id":58640653615439,"sku":"E25482L050125","price":129.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"135","offer_id":58640653648207,"sku":"E25482L050135","price":129.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"145","offer_id":58640653680975,"sku":"E25482L050145","price":129.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/E25482_L050_01_8a58785d-d8fb-401b-9a52-14782bfc71a6.jpg?v=1788473527","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-trust-sweet-iron-a-aiguilles-double-brisure-dr-bristol","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
