Metalab Flexi Medium Long Cheek Half Moon Pelham

Ideal for channeling the energy of powerful horses or those with fiery temperaments, the Metalab Flexi Medium Long Cheek Half Moon Pelham promotes clear contact while remaining gentle.

Featuring the revolutionary new Flexi bit concept, it offers a perfect balance between control for the rider and comfort for the horse.

This Pelham bit is crafted from ASTM304 stainless steel, a high-quality material known for its excellent corrosion resistance and ease of maintenance, and coated with PU EnviroGreen, strong, durable, and eco-friendly.

Its straight barrel, flexible on the sides, remains rigid in the mouth to ensure consistent and symmetrical contact while freeing the palate and preventing tongue pinching.

With a half-moon-shaped central piece, the Metalab Flexi Medium Long Cheek Half Moon Pelham prevents the horse from slipping its tongue over the bit.

Thanks to the flexibility of its ends, the barrel of the Pelham Metalab Flexi Medium Long Cheek Half Moon Pelham:

• is less harsh on the bars.
• ensures a gentle contact.
• reduces the risk of injury at the corners of the horse's mouth.

Less cold in the mouth, Metalab's Flexi bits are generally more readily accepted by horses.

Less harsh, they help promote relaxation of the mouth and ensure a comfortable contact for the horse.

Acting as a lever, the long cheeks of the Pelham Metalab Flexi Medium Long Cheek Half Moon Pelham have a more pronounced lowering effect than the short cheeks of the Pelham Metalab Flexi Medium Short Cheek Half Moon Pelham.

The adjustment of the curb chain allows for varied bit severity.

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

Using a curb chain guard is recommended to protect the sensitive lower jaw bone.
