Expert opinion
:imon is a stable, sweet-tasting bit. An anatomical straight bit designed with specific pressure distribution to ensure complete comfort for the horse. A straight bit is good for the teeth and mouthcorners, which makes Simon a great option to use for variation. Simons design to provide the best shape for a horse that a straight bit can have, following the natural contours of the horse's mouth. Simon is the perfect choice to use alongside your other bits. We at Fager always recommend alternating between different bits, to constantly switch the pressure points to maintain clear, precise communication.
Fixed rings are attached to the mouthpiece, and the reins’ contact will be more still towards the mouth. Fixed rings will encourage a horse to keep the contact towards the bit and create a stable feeling for both the horse and rider.
Material
Sweet Iron : Sweet Iron alloy oxidizes upon contact with moisture in the mouth and air. The oxidation brings a sweet taste that naturally stimulates the production of saliva. This corresponds to the effect of a sugar that is given to the horse at the beginning of the session but allows to diffuse this sweet taste throughout the work. Therefore, this alloy allows a good acceptance of the bit and helps the horse to make contact with the mouthpiece. The oxidation modifies the aspect of the bit during the sessions.
