Stainless steel. Ideal for
the show hack that dislikes
two mouth pieces. This model
has the same action as a
jointed pelham bit, but with
the look of a bit and bradoon
due to the shank design. It
comes complete with a double
link curb chain.
The pelham bit is used with
both snaffle and curb reins
but unlike a Weymouth &
Bradoon, it only has one
mouthpiece. Use of the curb
rein acts on poll pressure and
chin (via the curb chain),
while direct pressure on the
snaffle rein acts on the side
of the mouth.
The
use of Pelham Roundings
(available in
black or
havana)
convert this bit's use to a
single rein only, and this
reduces the normal curb action
that a pelham bit delivers.
