Bombers elliptical ultra comfy lock up Tom Thumb bit. Brand new!
Bombers The Ultra-Comfy shape is such that it follows the contour of the horse’s tongue. The centre elliptical joints have been double locked to ensure that the angle over the tongue remains correct, even when the reins are taken up, it retains the individual lateral aids.
The Tom Thumb is similar to the Ring bits or Dutch Gags and introduces poll pressure as well creating leverage on the mouthpiece. The main difference however is that instead of the additional rings at the bottom it has an extended shank with a ring on the end, this shank is bent and set to run at 45°. The effect this has is to ease up the poll pressure and leverage on the mouthpiece.
All Bomber bits are made from blue sweet iron, because it:
- oxidises easily
- encourages salivation
- helps bit acceptance
- is warm and sweet
Please note that the sweet iron fades to brown with use or any oxidation. This is normal.
