Frequently Asked Questions
What mouth widths does the Sprenger Bemelmans Weymouth 7cm 14mm come in?
It is available in four sizes: 115mm, 125mm, 135mm, and 145mm.
What is Sensogan and why is it used for this Weymouth?
Sensogan is the material used for the mouthpiece of this Weymouth. It is the material Sprenger specifies for this bit; the mouthpiece is described as smooth and rounded to enable particularly sensitive rein aids.
Why is the Bemelmans Weymouth recommended for horses with fleshy tongues?
The mouthpiece has a smooth, rounded and forward-angled port with no tongue pressure. Its shape is adapted to the sensitive palatal arch and tapered towards the centre, which nearly neutralises the horse's impulse to put the tongue over the bit - making it particularly suitable for horses with fleshy tongues or those that evade tongue pressure by pulling up or sticking out the tongue.
How do the 7cm cheeks affect the action of this Weymouth?
The longer 7cm cheeks create higher poll pressure, and the leverage effect is slightly delayed compared to shorter-cheeked Weymouths.
