Swales rubber with long shanks and happy tongue

The Abbey straight Swales bit with tongue passage has many advantages thanks to its alloy and the shape of its barrel. It provides comfort for horses that are sensitive in the mouth and have difficulty stretching. The anatomy of the bit offers space for the tongue and its tongue passage allows an optimal distribution of pressure on the bars, the tongue and the commissures. The fact that it is straight ensures a symmetrical left/right contact of the hand to the mouth and eliminates any risk of pinching the tongue. All these elements will allow the horse to gain confidence in his mouthpiece, to come to rest and to stretch. The Swales bit is very similar to the Pelham bit or the bridle bit. However, it avoids pressure on the neck because the top rings are not attached to the barrels. The snaffle bit is the only bit with a lever that does not act on the neck. This bit can be used with 2 or 4 reins. Either 4 reins (mobile rings on top and small rings on the bottom) or with rings. The two movable rings on the bit are used to fix the snaffle posts and the reins or rings and are placed on each side of the horse's mouth.
