Description

Bocca Bits Leonardo Double Jointed Baby Pelham with Copper Lozenge – a versatile and sophisticated bit designed for precise communication with your horse.

Designed to use with two reins, allowing for dual pressure points: the snaffle ring offers direct communication, while the bottom loose ring (curb) provides extra leverage when needed. They can also be utilized with rounding’s attached to a single rein, activating both the mouthpiece and the curb simultaneously.

The Pelham with a double jointed mouthpiece and copper lozenge offers a gentler mouth feel, distributing pressure evenly across the tongue and bars. This design reduces the nutcracker effect of single-jointed bits. The copper lozenge creates a positive effect and acceptance of the bit. Copper is a warm and soft metal, emitting a sweet and pleasant taste. This creates a warming sensation which encourages salivation and mouthing on the bit. Additionally, double-jointed mouthpieces can influence curb action, minimizing direct pressure by focusing more on the bars of the mouth.

The small ring above the curb is designed for a lip strap, enhancing the bit’s stability by keeping the curb chain flat. It is not essential, but correct for showing.

Crafted from stainless steel, the bit is durable, easy to clean and resistant to rust, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Ideal for stronger horses, the Leonardo Pelham promotes correct head carriage and responsiveness to subtle rein cues, making it a valuable tool for riders seeking refined communication.
