Baroque decorated Baucher bit made of silver-coloured brass with a particularly thin, single-jointed mouthpiece

Baucher bit with single-jointed mouthpiece made of silver-colored brass. The decorated side parts with floral patterns in the Portuguese Cortesia style make the Baucher bit a baroque eye-catcher. The mouthpiece is 12 mm thick.

The vertical play at the connection between the mouthpiece and the side parts - similar to a bit with a pump function - encourages chewing. The horse can position the mouthpiece a little more in the mouth, in contrast to a Baucher bit with a fixed connection. This also means that rein aids are less direct, similar to a snaffle bit. This also compensates for slightly unsteady hands, for example.

Due to the movable connection between the side parts and the mouthpiece, we recommend using rubber bit discs with this bit, as is common with many Iberian bits.

The Baucher bit is manufactured exclusively for Picadera in a factory in Portugal.

Effect of the Baucher bit

The bridle is fastened using the oval eyelets on the upper bars. The shape of the side pieces means that the Baucher bit is more stable in the mouth and offers the option of adjusting it sideways using pressure on the horse's cheek. Another special feature of this shape of side piece is that the mouthpiece sags less downwards than with other bits, such as the loose ring snaffle, olive head bit, D-ring or full bit. Even when chewing, it can only be moved slightly towards the incisors and is almost straight in the horse's mouth, similar to a bar. This makes the Baucher bit suitable for all horses with little space in the mouth and/or a short mouth gap.

The Baucher bit is used without a chin chain and has no leverage. Instead, when the reins are pulled, the bit moves more towards the corner of the mouth and has an effect there. This has an uprighting effect on many horses.

The right size for the Baucher bit

In our experience, you can choose the size your horse is used to with this bit. For correct influence and aids, the sides of the Baucher bit should fit tightly to the corners of the horse's mouth. If your horse is undecided between two sizes, we recommend that you choose the larger size for this model.
