Jump'In Pelham Twisted Cheek Bit with Mouthpiece

Composition : German Silver (65% copper, 23% zinc, 12% nickel) a casual and sturdy alloy.

Effect : This bit obviously isn't for everyone and is intended for professional use or for an informed amateur. The Pelham is a good compromise between the snaffle and the bridle. It provides good control over the horse's movement. The lifter, on the other hand, affects balance more. Therefore, this bit has a generally very effective and strong action. The twisted mouthpiece enhances its action even more.

Usage advice: This Pelham can only be used with four reins, with one pair on the lifter's cheekpieces and a second on the Pelham's branch. It's possible to place a pair of links between the main ring of the Pelham and the branch to reduce its action slightly. Likewise, the action of the curb chain can be softened with other types of curb chains such as leather or nylon.

Care advice: Make sure to rinse the bit well after each use to limit the buildup of residue and prevent discomfort for your horse.
