The Hard Rubber Mullen Kimberwick Bit features a solid mullen mouthpiece that evenly distributes pressure across the tongue and bars. The hard rubber material provides a stable and consistent feel, making it a suitable option for horses that benefit from steady contact. The Kimberwick design includes slotted D-shaped cheekpieces, allowing for slight leverage when used with the lower rein position, offering additional influence on head carriage when needed.
Key Features of the Hard Rubber Mullen Mouthpiece:
- Steady and Comfortable Fit : The smooth, straight design allows the horse to maintain a relaxed and natural mouth position, encouraging acceptance of the bit.
- Balanced Pressure Distribution : Ideal for sensitive horses, this mouthpiece applies even pressure across the tongue and bars, promoting steady contact without sharp or direct points of pressure.
Straight Mouthpiece Features :
- Even Pressure Distribution : A straight mouthpiece applies uniform pressure across the tongue and bars, ensuring balanced and even contact.
- Adjustable Pressure : The thickness and shape of the mouthpiece dictate where and how much pressure is applied, giving riders the ability to customize the feel.
- Steady Contact for Calmer Horses : The straighter and thicker the mouthpiece, the more pressure it applies to the tongue, making it suitable for horses that need more stable contact.
Kimberwick Design Features :
- Leverage Options : The Kimberwick cheekpieces include multiple rein slot options, allowing the rider to choose different levels of leverage depending on rein placement. This versatility lets riders customize the bit's effect, making it adaptable for a range of horses.
- Stabilized Positioning : The fixed cheekpieces hold the bit in a steady position within the horse’s mouth, helping maintain consistent pressure and reducing the chance of the bit moving laterally.
- Gentle Curb Action : When rein pressure is applied, the Kimberwick provides a mild curb action, which can encourage the horse to stay collected and responsive.
