1301 Fine Line Flex Loose Ring Snaffle, 12.5 cm

Are you looking for a bit that offers exceptional chewing comfort while promoting a soft, trusting contact? The Fine Line Flex Loose Ring Snaffle is an ideal choice when training and riding young or particularly sensitive horses. Instead of cold metal, an innovative synthetic mouthpiece sits in the horse's mouth, keeping it at a pleasant temperature that encourages excellent acceptance right from the start.

The design is tailored to the natural anatomy of the horse. A subtle port in the centre effectively relieves pressure on the tongue, allowing rein aids to be distributed gently and evenly across the bars. A solid metal core is concealed inside the synthetic material, providing the necessary stability and structural integrity. Furthermore, the loose rings allow the horse to position the mouthpiece slightly by themselves. This stimulates chewing activity, promotes a relaxed jaw, and helps the horse accept contact with the rider's hand in a relaxed manner. For horses that react defensively to conventional alloys or show an intolerance to metal, this model proves to be a true asset for daily training.

Tips for Fitting and Sizing:
Selecting the correct size is essential to ensure optimal comfort. It is best to use a well-fitting model as a reference or measure the width of the mouth accurately using a bit measure or a soft piece of string. Please note that for loose-ring snaffles, you should allow about a centimetre of clearance to ensure the rings can rotate freely without pinching the lips. Please keep in mind that even the softest material is only ever as gentle as the rider's hand, as harsh or improper use can cause discomfort with any bit.
