Key Features

Non-ToxicNon-Toxic
Bits that are made from non-toxic materials, unlike most plastics, rubbers, and metals, are a safer option for horses who need a gentler bit.
-
Increased PalatabilityIncreased Palatability
Bits that increase palatability often incorporate sweet metals (such as copper and iron) or flavored plastics which encourage the horse to salivate, relax their jaw, and accept the bit. They may be inlaid into the bars, be the roller or lozenge, or make up the entire bar.
-
Leverage PressureLeverage Pressure
These bits use indirect pressure that multiplies the amount of force exerted on the horse's mouth, nose, or poll. They are used by riders who have little to no contact or are looking for more finesse and control.
-
Direct PressureDirect Pressure
Bits that use direct pressure have a 1:1 ratio where the pressure exerted on the reins will be the same pressure felt in the mouth. They are used by riders who often have contact with their horse's mouth.
Looking for a bit with thoughtful design and ultimate comfort for your horse? The Fager Greta Titanium Hunter Dee Ring Bit is just that! Helping to solve common issues with a sensitive-mouthed horse, this bit is a great solution if your horse is inconsistent in the contact, pulls away when pressure is applied, or exhibits fussiness in the mouth. The smooth surface and joints guarantee maximum comfort and fluidity while preventing the delicate-mouthed horse from developing cuts or rubs. The dee rings keep the bit stable in the mouth, preventing unwanted sliding and ensuring precise communication. The straight sides of the dee ring also aid in steering and framing, empowering you to achieve harmony and connection with your horse.
