When exposed to moist 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 an elliptical center link. This shape better follows the anatomy of the mouth and allows the bit to sit more freely, but it exerts slightly more pressure on the center of the tongue than a single joint.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ A combination of a Pelham and a loose-ring gag: a loose ring with two holes on each side, through which a leather strap passes. The points of pressure are the chin and poll. It can be used with one or two reins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e📋 Technical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Curbgag bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Sweet Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece: double-jointed with elliptical center link\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\u003eThe elliptical center link eliminates the pinching effect of a single joint without imposing the firmness of a flat plate: this is the most forgiving type of double-jointed bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🧴 Usage advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚠️ Bit size is given in millimeters: 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 use the measurement of the bit it currently wears: if too wide, the bit moves around and pinches; if too narrow, it tightens the corners of the mouth. ⚠️ Combined leverage and curb-chain action: for experienced riders only. ⚠️ The blue color turns silver-gray or brown-gray with use, and an orange film appears when the bit is left unused: this is normal Sweet Iron behavior, 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":58647355064655,"sku":"E26746L050115","price":169.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"125","offer_id":58647355097423,"sku":"E26520L050125","price":169.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"135","offer_id":58647355130191,"sku":"E26520L050135","price":169.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"145","offer_id":58647355162959,"sku":"E26520L050145","price":169.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/E26746_L050_01.jpg?v=1788365778","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-trust-sweet-iron-curbgag-double-brisure-a-maillon-elliptique","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
