Description
The Velari Eggbutt Medium 20 mm offers stable and moderate contact, ideal for horses needing clear aids while maintaining comfort. It has a slightly firmer feel than the Soft version, allowing for more defined communication without becoming harsh.

Made from a medium-firm non-toxic synthetic material, this model provides more feedback than the soft version while maintaining a smooth and pleasant surface. The internal flexible core allows the bit to follow the natural movements of the jaw, encouraging active chewing and relaxation without feeling unstable in the hand.

The straight cannon with medium flexibility offers a stable yet adaptable feel. It rests evenly on the tongue and bars, promoting consistent contact while preserving comfort. Being jointless, it avoids pinching and irregular pressure, allowing the horse to confidently move forward into the bit. Its 20 mm thickness ensures even pressure distribution, suitable for a wide variety of horses.

Eggbutt rings keep the cannon more stable in the horse's mouth, limiting excessive lateral movement and reducing the risk of pinching at the corners. This stability suits horses that appreciate a calmer bit and helps them remain confident in the contact. The fixed rings ensure consistent and reliable rein aids, for a soft yet secure connection throughout the session.

• Horses needing a balance between flexibility and structure
