Metalab short shanks Weymouth Bit with tongue passage
Featuring a tongue relief for added comfort, the Metalab short shank Weymouth bit is especially suitable for horses with sensitive tongues or those with a thick tongue.
By maximizing space in the horse's mouth, the slim mouthpiece with tongue relief of this bit helps to minimize pressure on the tongue.
With its short shanks, the Metalab short shank Weymouth bit is a type of L'hotte Weymouth bit that has less leverage than a long shank bit. It remains a severe bit due to its lowering action.
Typically used in dressage, this bit is recommended for experienced riders.
The adjustment of the curb chain allows for variation in the bit's severity.
The curb chain should lie flat, make contact, and allow a 45° angle between the shanks and the axis of the mouth.
Using a curb chain guard is recommended to protect the sensitive bone of the lower jaw.
