Sale price$162.90

Thanks to its tongue relief channel with a central rolling section, the Metalab Elite Curved Long Shank Pelham Bit promotes focus, chewing, and relaxation of the horse's mouth.

Ergonomically designed, the Elite bits provide exceptional comfort and enhance communication between the rider's hand and the horse's mouth.

Equipped with long shanks, the Metalab Elite Curved Long Shank Pelham Bit offers a more significant leverage effect than a Pelham bit with short shanks, making it more intense.

This bit acts on the tongue, neck, and lower jaw of the horse, ensuring superior control over very spirited or powerful horses.

The leverage effect on the neck can vary depending on the rein attachment point.

It can be used with one or two pairs of reins, or Pelham converters.

The use of the Pelham bit is recommended for experienced riders.

Constructed of stainless steel, the Metalab Elite Curved Long Shank Pelham Bit includes a leather-covered curb chain for added comfort.

The adjustment of the curb chain allows for modifying the bit's intensity.

The curb chain should be positioned flat, in contact, and allow a 45° angle between the shanks and the mouth's axis.

For enhanced comfort, the upper ring used to attach the bridle's cheekpiece is turned outward, minimizing friction against the horse's jaw.

  • Mouthpiece diameter: 14 mm
  • Shank length: 102 mm
