Korsteel Flexi Mullen Mouth Eggbutt Snaffle – 5 inches
The Korsteel Flexi Bits are made from hi-tech plastic which has been moulded around a core of stainless steel, so the durability of the bit is not compromised. The flexi mouthpiece is ‘warmer’ than a traditional stainless steel mouthpiece, which encourages acceptance of the bit. For this reason, the flexi mouthpiece is a good choice for younger horses and those with a sensitive mouth. This Mullen Mouth Snaffle’s main action is on the bars of the mouth and the horse’s tongue, however it is extremely mild and is a perfect first mouthing and ridden bit. The eggbutt cheeks encourage the horse to take a contact, as the eggbutt sits stiller in the horse’s mouth than a loose ring snaffle. This bit is dressage legal, and the plastic should be checked before every use for sharp edges where the horse may have chewed the mouthpiece….
