Key Features

The Half Spoon has only a lower half of a full cheek. The cheek prevents pinching on the sides of the mouth. The bit provides some lateral guiding and is more fixed in the mouth than the Loose Ring.

The Bomber Blue material is a nylon composite and has been on the global market for over a decade. It has proven to be a well-received alternative to steel and other synthetics. It is porous encouraging salivation and acceptance.

We have carefully blended the stainless-steel joints with the Bomber Blue material to create a smooth  profile.

Some horse’s do not like the feel of metal in the mouth.  The Bomber Blue material was designed specifically for these horses

The Bomber Blue Elliptical Lock Up removes the squeezing of the bars that a conventional three piece creates.  The Bomber Blue Elliptical Lock Up is therefore a softer option, than a conventional Elliptical, although stronger than a control plate due to the smaller pressure point created on the tongue.

Recommended by Bomber for horses that are fussy in the contact and require both stability and a separation of the aids.  This would be recommended for horses lifting, poking or flicking their heads.

Mouthpiece

The Elliptical Lock Up creates a pressure point on the tongue due to the centre component concentrating pressure on a small surface area. Pressure descends onto the bars and due to the mouthpiece being a semi-broken mouthpiece, it will hinder creating a squeeze on the bars – the extra piece of metal that has been added prevents the mouthpiece from folding backwards therefore creating little, to no squeeze on the bars.

There are many factors beyond our control that can contribute to the horse chewing the bit, thus we are not able to cover the non-metal mouthpieces with our lifetime guarantee.

Supplied with orange bit protectors.
