Description
The Velari Flex Loose Ring Snaffle Hard 20 mm offers a firmer feel for horses that benefit from a more defined rein connection. It promotes clearer aids and can help reduce pressure without resorting to a metal bit. While firmer than the Soft and Medium versions, this bit maintains a smooth, rounded surface to avoid unnecessary pressure points.

Made from a firm, non-toxic synthetic material, the mouthpiece remains smooth and secure while offering excellent precision in the aids. The material is free of harmful substances and suitable for long-term use. Despite its increased firmness, it avoids the cold, rigid feel of traditional metal bits, making it a thoughtful choice for riders seeking more precise communication.

This bit features a straight, firm mouthpiece that provides stability and a clear contact. The mouthpiece retains its shape under pressure, making it ideal for horses that tend to lean or become heavy with softer bits. Its straight construction distributes pressure evenly across the tongue and bars, offering consistent, well-defined signals without the harshness of metal.

The free rings allow the mouthpiece to move freely, stimulating gentle chewing activity and helping the horse remain supple and responsive to the bit. This increased mobility supports precise rein aids and maintains a soft, responsive connection throughout the work.

Ideal for

Horses that lean on the handle or become heavy
Experienced riders seeking precise rein response
Advanced work, show jumping or cross-training
