Portuguese curb bit in Balao style
Classic, silver-colored curb bit, as is often used in Portugal. The slight, vertical movement of the mouthpiece encourages the horse to chew. This makes it easier to loosen the jaw, poll and thus the entire horse's back. The bar mouthpiece with little tongue clearance relieves the middle of the tongue, making the bit suitable for horses with normal to fleshy tongues. For horses with sensitive corners of the mouth, we recommend the additional use of bit discs.
Portuguese curb bit BALAO in detail
- Bit thickness 10 mm
- Upper boom 5 cm, lower boom 7 cm
- Promotes mouth activity through light pumping function
- Bar mouthpiece with small tongue clearance
- Silver colored, chrome-plated brass
Effect & use of the bit
The light pumping function allows the horse to move the mouthpiece up and down rhythmically. This helps horses with a tight mouth and those with very little mouth activity to relax their jaws better. This also loosens the horse's neck and ultimately the entire body more easily.
The Portuguese curb bit can be used bare with one or two pairs of reins. Using two pairs of reins offers a wonderful alternative to the curb bit/snaffle bit combination for horses with a short mouth gap and little space in the mouth. The curb bit is also suitable for use with a snaffle bit due to the particularly thin mouthpiece.
The right size for the curb bit
You can find the actual dimensions of the mouthpiece under "Size Guide" (see above). If you are unsure, we recommend that you compare the actual dimensions of your existing bit with those of the Portuguese curb bit to find the right size. Please note that the side parts should fit tightly to the corners of your horse's mouth. If your horse is undecided between two sizes, we recommend that you choose the larger size for this model.

Perfect fit, great workmanship! Finally a bit that isn't so thick.
Nice and fine for an Arabian mouth, really rather buy larger
Balao curb bit, very nice, not too heavy, fits perfectly, well received, will definitely order another one. Highly recommended.
