2.5 Ring Bit
A 2.5 ring bit is a milder version of a 3 ring (pessoa) bit. With this bit a leverage can be created. The lower the reins are placed, the stronger the bit becomes. An ideal bit for horses that are very strong or hold the bit. Compared to the 2.5 eggbut, the loose rings can move loosely so there is more movement in the bit and the rein aid has a more indirect effect.


Dr. Bristol
The Dr. Bristol mouthpiece is a double-jointed mouthpiece with a flat centre piece. The centre plate in a Dr bristol eggbutt is angled and flat edged. Working primarily on the tongue with a sharp action due to the staight edged angled plate, and to a lesser degnee on the bars. It can be useful for strong horses or those that pull.


Sweet Iron Bits
The Sweet Iron bits are made of steel and have a recognizable blue color. Sweet Iron will rust when it comes into contact with (air) humidity, the surface rust tastes sweet and naturally stimulates the saliva production. This will cause the horse to salivate more, which in turn will encourage a better acceptance of the bit.
