Our expert's opinion
The combination of full cheeks and a gag action provides lateral guidance while allowing the rider to work on the horse's balance and frame. The Pinchless single-jointed mouthpiece enables more independent rein aids while helping to reduce pinching, promoting more precise contact and greater confidence in the rider's hand. Leather provides a warmer feel, encourages chewing and salivation, and can therefore improve bit acceptance in sensitive horses.
Description
The Metalab Pinchless leather single-jointed full cheek gag bit is particularly suited to sensitive horses and young horses that still need support with their balance. The combination of the gag action and full cheeks provides additional lateral guidance while allowing the rider to influence the horse’s frame.
The single-jointed mouthpiece transmits the rider’s aids independently on each side. Its Pinchless joint helps reduce the risk of pinching the tongue and corners of the mouth while allowing more independent rein aids.
The leather-covered mouthpiece provides a warmer contact than metal and encourages chewing and salivation. As it comes into contact with saliva, the leather gradually softens for increased comfort in the mouth.
The gag system works with specific cheekpieces running through the dedicated rings. It can be used with two or four reins, or with rein connectors, while the full cheeks provide additional lateral guidance and help channel the horse.
Material
Leather: Leather is a natural material that provides a comfortable feel in the horse’s mouth while encouraging chewing and salivation. It avoids the cold initial contact associated with some metal bits. Saliva gradually softens the leather, making it increasingly comfortable for the horse.
Warning: This material is vulnerable and is not guaranteed by the manufacturer against wear caused by biting. It is strongly advised not to use a bit that is excessively damaged, as it could injure the horse’s bars, tongue or palate.
