Composition: This Pelham bit features a flexible cannon crafted with a metal core encased in Natural Rubber. It combines the durability of metal with the softness of rubber for exceptional comfort.
Important Note: Rubber bits may not be resistant to biting, even after initial use.
Effect: The Pelham bit strikes an ideal balance between a traditional bridle and a double bridle. Its lever action can be adjusted based on cheek length, curb chain tension, and assembly, allowing for a range of control from light to firm. This design encourages the horse to flex at the neck and applies gentle pressure on the mandibles. Within the Jump'In range, rubber bits are renowned for their superior softness, providing unmatched comfort, particularly for sensitive horses.
Tips: The Pelham bit is versatile and can be used with two reins, bit loops, or four reins. Adjusting the curb chain with alternative materials such as leather or nylon can further refine the bit’s action. The straight, flexible cannon facilitates excellent contact and aids in the horse's back muscle stretching during work.
Maintenance Advice: Rinse the bit thoroughly after each use to prevent residue buildup and ensure your horse’s comfort.
