Description

The Sprenger KK Ultra Loose Ring Slim Bit is a 12mm double jointed snaffle featuring a Sensogan mouthpiece, developed on the basis of scientific research into horse mouth cavity dimensions conducted by the University of Veterinary Medicine in Hanover. Available in 115mm, 125mm, and 135mm.

  • KK ULTRA double jointed snaffle 12mm thickness with a Sensogan mouthpiece
  • Anatomically adapted mouthpiece - middle link shortened and angled forward by 45°
  • Noticeable improved effect in comparison to common double jointed bits
  • Enables the rider to give fine and more sensitive aids and improves the contact
  • When the reins are taken up, the middle link (lozenge) gently rolls over the central part of the horse's tongue, stimulating its sense of touch
  • The connecting rings to the middle piece roll softly over the tongue without exerting pressure
  • Development based on scientific research into space conditions and bit position in the horse's mouth
  • Used successfully worldwide in all disciplines and across all training levels
