Expert opinion : The olive bit is a simple bit that offers a simple contact. It allows a good relaxation of your horse's mouth by a smoother transmission of your aids. Unlike the double snaffle bit which acts on the tongue, the single snaffle bit acts on the palate. It is important to know that the palate of the horse is a sensitive area that should not be neglected. It can be recommended for horses that are relatively easy on the mouth, not very sensitive on the palate or with a hollow palate. The resin allows a more pleasant and relaxing contact. Especially in winter, when stainless steel bits cause a cold effect in the mouth that is not very pleasant, resin bits are not and play a more important role in relaxation. The special feature of the lift bit is that it uses special posts that pass through two rings perpendicular to the bit rings. This makes it possible to use it with two or four reins or with rings. The snaffle reins will then have a traditional lifting effect, and the reins attached to the special uprights will often have a lowering effect. It helps to improve the horse's balance by bringing the tip of the horse's nose closer to the rider. Here the lifter is combined with an olive bit, i.e. it has oval-shaped rings. They only rotate along one axis of rotation, which avoids any pinching of the corners of the mouth.

Resin : Happy Mouth offers a non-toxic polyurethane resin that gives the horse a lasting apple taste to help with bit acceptance. Resin bits are soft and light, suitable for young horses for breaking in or for sensitive mouths. Resin bits stay at room temperature. They offer a soft contact but are less tender and thick than a rubber bit. The apple taste encourages chewing.

Caution : This material is vulnerable and is not guaranteed by the manufacturer against wear and tear due to biting. We strongly advise against using a bit that is too damaged, as this could injure the horse's bars, tongue and palate.
