Comfy Barrel Pelham

The comfy barrel is ergonomically shaped to follow the confirmation of the horses mouth, Made from stainless steel, 16mm at the cheek reducing to 10mm thick leaving room in the mouth for horses that don’t naturally have that much room for the bit.

The barrel centre keeps the bits constant shape whilst forming a joint to give some movement in the mouthpiece, the barrel gives the bit independent movement of either side to give a more definite signal to the horse, as there is no twist to the rest of the bit as there is with other double jointed bits. With the barrel being stiller than a conventional lozenge or french link it doesn’t irritate the palate and as it restricts the amount of movement In the bit it also restricts the bit from putting pressure on the palate

The Pelham Cheek

Very much like the Hanging Cheek, relieving tongue pressure but with the addition of a shank to apply other areas of control at the poll and curb. Designed to be used with a snaffle rein and a curb rein to allow for varying degrees of curb and poll pressure simultaneously whilst alleviating tongue pressure.

Roundings may be added if preferred, although full functionality and versatility of a pelham arm would be compromised only using a single rein.

Ideal For…

Horses that need varying degrees of control at different times, e.g. horses that become strong in a group or out on a show jumping or cross country course, usually where more control is required in front of the fence.
