Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes does the Sprenger Weymouth FC Bit come in?
The Sprenger Weymouth FC Bit is available in three sizes: 125mm, 135mm, and 145mm.
Why is the Sprenger Weymouth FC Bit described as suitable for horses with a flat palatal arch?
The bit features a low, wide port that provides broad space for the tongue and protects the sensitive palate, making it particularly suited to horses with a flat palatal arch.
How does the longer cheek on this Weymouth bit affect the action?
The longer cheeks increase poll pressure and slightly delay the leverage effect compared to shorter-cheeked designs.
How should I size the Weymouth curb bit when using it as part of a double bridle?
As a general guide, the curb bit should be chosen 1/2 to 1 cm smaller than the snaffle, because the horse's mouth is narrower where the curb sits. The side parts should close close to the corners of the mouth.
How should the curb chain be adjusted on the Sprenger Weymouth FC Bit?
The curb chain should be adjusted so that the shank can be brought to an angle of approximately 45°.
