Effect & use of the bit

The Vaquero Curb Bit has a less direct action due to its movable side pieces compared to curb bits with firmly welded mouthpiece. This allows the horse to play more with the mouthpiece and rein aids arrive less directly. Another pair of reins can be buckled into the curb eye, so that it can also be used with four reins.

The anatomically shaped Mullen Mouth ported mouthpiece optimised by Lopez is gladly accepted by many horses, as it lies very evenly on the tongue and is cushioned by it. The Mullen Mouth mouthpiece , which is curved over its entire length, is particularly suitable for horses with very thick and fleshy tongues. Through natural oxidation processes and the formation of noble rust, the burnished iron stimulates salivation.

The right size for the Curb Bit

Under "Size guide" (see above) you will find the real dimensions of the Mullen Mouth mouthpiece. If you are unsure, we recommend that you compare the real dimensions of your existing bit with those of our mouthpiece to find the right size. Please note that the side pieces of the Curb Bit should be close to the corners of your horse's mouth.

Care instructions for burnished iron

Rust forms on traditional burnished products or product components after some time. This is due to natural oxidation processes and is not a quality defect, but an essential and desired characteristic of this material. To maintain the dark color, it is recommended to occasionally rub the parts concerned with a cloth soaked in olive oil.
