1 bit - 2 levels of impact
The new 2-in-1 bit offers two additional levels of impact in the horse's mouth by simply changing the sides of the bit.
1. If you curl the more angular side of the bit towards the horse's tongue, the pressure is more selective.
2. If you curl the round side towards the horse's tongue, you have a softer impact.
If the + sign is visible on the mounting side, the more effective side is used. If the + sign is not visible on the mounting side, the softer side is used.
Changing the loop from time to time helps prevent desensitization of the horse's mouth.
Advantages of SWEET Copper:
- Better acceptance
- Pleasant sweet taste of the centerpiece
- Encourages chewing and salivation
- Solid copper composition (90% copper, 7% iron and aluminum, no nickel) with very high resistance
- Horses feel good with SWEET Copper.
Advantages of a full-cheek snaffle:
- Long, extended arms above and below the mouthpiece, with a ring attached. The cheeks have a good lateral guiding effect which improves the horse's response on the outside rein in turns and circles.
- Leverage is not very high. However, it can be increased when used with bits that hold the bit more firmly in the mouth.
- Full cheek bits have proved particularly effective for training young horses and for lunging work.
Stübben STEELtec quality:
- No asperities that could injure the horse's mouth
- Long service life thanks to selected materials
- Special treatment technology ensures that bit holes and links remain intact for longer.
