Sprenger Pelham Bit - short shank
Why riders love it
Perfect for horses that are a bit strong, the SPRENGER Pelham Bit offers enhanced control for the rider.
This version features short shanks for a softer impact.
The SPRENGER Pelham Bit - Short Shanks provides a more moderate action than a traditional Pelham with longer shanks.
However, the effect of this bit is still significant as it simultaneously impacts:
- the tongue
- the poll
- the lower jaw
The adjustment of the curb chain allows you to regulate the intensity of the bit's action. It should lie flat, in contact, and allow a 45° angle between the shanks and the axis of the mouth.
Often used with Pelham straps, the SPRENGER Pelham Bit - Short Shanks achieves a more precise action with two pairs of reins.
Crafted from stainless steel, it comes with its own curb chain.
Mouthpiece thickness: 16 mm
Length of the lower part of the shanks: 4.5 cm
