Meroth

With a Meroth bit (used without a bridle), all pressure is applied within the horse’s mouth. It can be beneficial for horses sensitive to pressure on the head and neck, but it may not suit horses with a sensitive mouth. The absence of a bridle does not necessarily mean greater comfort or gentleness for the horse.

Do you know the funnel approach ? That's how we usually work to determine the most suitable bit. You need to be attentive to the various signals your horse might emit, which could help determine his sensitivities. Does he shake his head? Does he rest on his bit? We explain everything in our Advice section. 

The bit should be rinsed with water after each use to remove saliva and residues. Don't forget to dry it with a towel. If impurities are difficult to remove, you can use a small cleaning brush. Never use a metallic brush, however, as the bristles may scratch the bit, making it uneven and sharp.

If you're not completely satisfied with your bit within 15 days, you can return it to us and take advantage of our rental service. To find out more about our rental conditions, click here.
