Bit Fit

We have a special interest in bits at Steadfast Equestrian. 

A properly fitting bit will hugely impact your horses behavior and your ride. 

A happy mouth = a happy horse! 

Here is a great measurement conversion chart by Bombers bits. While this is made for their bits specifically, the measurements typically ring true for most bits. 

Should you have any questions please shoot us an email at info@steadfastequestrian.ca

 

Remember, your base measurement is X. This is the measurement that you would use with any solid mouth piece and fixed cheekpiece. 

Example: 

My horse Frankie, her base size is 120mm. 

In our Dee Ring Ported Pivot Bit (solid mouthpiece) we use a 120mm. 

If we wanted to use a semi broken mouthpiece with a loose ring, we would add 10mm to our base measure, making it 130mm.
