The Premium Twisted Cut Off Segunda Pelham Bit is crafted for riders who require added control and responsiveness. At the center of its design is the Segunda mouthpiece, a unique feature known for its distinctive shape. The Segunda mouthpiece is characterized by a concave curve that becomes more pronounced when the reins are pulled. This design creates a sharper edge that applies focused pressure on the horse’s tongue and bars, offering a more significant control mechanism than standard bits.
This bit is particularly effective for horses that are strong, tend to lean on the bit, or are less responsive to milder bits. However, its use requires a skilled hand, as the increased pressure can be intense. Our bit tempers this intensity with a twisted design and a cut-off feature, which helps to mitigate the nutcracker effect common in traditional bits, reducing the risk of discomfort or harm to the horse.
Despite its effectiveness, the Segunda bit should be used sensibly. We recommend its use under the guidance of a professional trainer, as part of a comprehensive training and riding strategy. It’s not a standard bit and should be used temporarily to address specific training challenges.
