Bit bits for your horse

Bit bits for your horse

Curb bits are mostly only used in higher dressage and serve to refine the aids in higher lessons. Curb bits have a much sharper effect on the horse's mouth than, for example, a simply broken snaffle bit due to the leverage of the suits.

Please note that we do not give any guarantee against biting. Please do not test the bit in the horse's mouth if you are unsure of the size, as we cannot take back bits with scratches.

Double bit - only for fine hands

The curb bit is an unbroken bar with or without tongue clearance, which should be chosen 1/2 to 1 cm smaller than the Underlay bridle. To the right and left of the pole, outside the horse's mouth, are the so-called trees. It is important that the side parts of the curb end close to the corners of the mouth. If there is too much play between the corner of the mouth and the side parts, the curb can jam and, in extreme cases, cant. The curb chain increases leverage and puts pressure on the lower jaw. For these reasons, the curb and the curb bit only belong in experienced, calm rider hands. The double bridle is completed by a snaffle bit, which is mainly used for riding. The curb bit is only used to refine the aids, which is why the

usually sag a bit.

Dressage curbs

French curb / dressage curb

French or dressage curbs come in short or long suits, usually 5cm or 7cm. Curb bits with short suits are also called baby curbs. However, this does not mean that this species is "softer". The short suits naturally result in less leverage, but the rein aids reach the horse's mouth much faster. With a long suit there is a little more leeway and you can dose the pressure in finer gradations. Remember: The angle of attack that results from a certain shortening of the reins is smaller the longer the suit is. This means that if you accept the reins in the same way, the "Baby" curb acts much faster and therefore more sharply. Basically, you now have to consider whether your hand is fine enough to work in millimeters and whether your horse needs more direct, clear aids, or a little more time to think.

The French double bridle differs from the usual dressage double bridle only in the shape of the rod. This is a bar that is only slightly bent upwards and has no clearance for the tongue. With all other curb bits there is little to a lot of tongue freedom. Freedom of speech is controversial these days. The FN represents the traditional idea that the "balls" of the curb put weight on the bars and the tongue is encased by the freedom of the tongue to prevent canting when the reins are pressed on one side. The more tongue freedom the bit offers, the sharper the curb appears. In addition, the horse's mouth must offer enough space, otherwise the arch will press on the palate. According to the latest findings, the tongue is more likely to be pinched due to the freedom of the tongue and the horse does not have the opportunity to push the bit up with the tongue to counteract too much pressure. If the bar is only slightly bent, this acts evenly on the entire tongue when the pressure is on the same side. With too much one-sided tightening, however, there is a risk of canting.

Postal curbs

Post curbaries / Liverpool curbaries

An exception are the broken curb bits, which are also known as driving curbs, post curbs or Liverpool curbs. They are used without a bridle. Driving curbs have up to three "eyelets" one below the other, into which the driving line can be buckled. Post curbs with two eyelets that together have the shape of a "B" are often used. The deeper the driving line is strapped in, the sharper the driving curb.

Which double bit now?

Which curb bit you want to use depends on many factors. Are you and your horse so far advanced in the training that you have already reached the so-called "curb maturity"? How much space is available in the horse's mouth? Observe your horse's reactions to the respective bit very closely and find out which curb bit your horse prefers.

Curb accessories

Bradoons

Curb bits are almost always used in conjunction with a snaffle bit. The snaffle bit is similar in shape and effect to the normal working bit, but is only 1/2 to a full size smaller.

Curb reins

Curb reins are essential for using a curb bit. They are available as a flat version or sewn round.

Double bridle

What is a curb bit without the right bridle? Double bridles always consist of an English noseband with two cheek pieces for a snaffle bit and a double bridle.

Chin Chains & Pads

Curb bits are always used with a curb chain in dressage. If you need a new curb chain, you can find it here.
