Thigh bits, or toggle bits, have side bars that have a directional effect. Furthermore, the bit, similar to an olive head bit, lies more quietly in the horse's mouth than a snaffle bit. It is often used for training young horses, for lunging or by show jumpers.
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.
