Portuguese training curb bit GIRA Mullen Mouth Sweet Iron with rotating mouthpiece

The novelty for sensitive mouths - Portuguese Curb Bit with rotating Mullen Mouth mouthpiece

In the style of the classic Portuguese Curb Bit, this bit is characterized by a rotating, i.e. turnable, mouthpiece . This is particularly helpful for very sensitive horses and horses with leaning problems, as they can rotate the mouthpiece flexibly in the mouth and position it as required.

Thanks to the 1:1 side piece ratio, the Curb Bit has only minimal leverage, is stable in the horse's mouth and is therefore also suitable as a training curb bit. An additional rein can be buckled into the curb bit eye directly on the mouthpiece . This makes the bit suitable for riding with two pairs of reins, as well as for slowly switching to one-handed reins.

The anatomically shaped Mullen Mouth ported mouthpiece , optimized by Lopez, is readily accepted by many horses. It has a very even position on the tongue and is cushioned by it. Horses with very thick and fleshy tongues in particular benefit from the full-length curved mouthpiece.

Due to natural oxidation processes and the formation of noble rust, the burnished iron tastes sweet and stimulates the horse's salivation.

The Curb Bit is manufactured in Spain.

Care instructions for burnished iron

Rust forms on traditional, burnished products or product components after some time. This is caused by 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 advisable to occasionally rub the affected parts with a cloth soaked in olive oil. You can find detailed care instructions for the various bit materials in our bit blog.
