Kimblewick Snaffle
Our Snaffle is a popular bit due to the curved mouthpiece which distributes pressure more evenly over tongue and bars. With the offset centre link it will reduce nutcraker action and pressure points on the tongue.
Kimblewick Control Plate
The Bombers Control Plate is set at 45° to follow the contour of the horses tongue. Consequently, a horse who uses his tongue as a means of pushing against the bit and therefore taking control, will draw back and tuck his chin in, coming back to a better point of control. This differs from a Dr Bristol which sits horizontlaly with the edge of the plate on the tongue.
Reversible Kimblewick Chain Link
The Chain Link is a unique development from Bombers and an addition to our extensive bitting range.
This versatile bit can be flipped and used either way with the uneven edge providing a stronger bit and the smoother curved edge creating a softer more forgiving bit. Great bit for the experienced rider.
