- Mouth- and tongue-friendly design
- 45° angled middle link enables soft but also precise aids
- Acts on tongue, poll and lower jaw for precise and effective aids
- Slightly lower lever action in comparison to a Pelham
- Middle link (lozenge) gently rolls over the central part of the horse's tongue, stimulating its sense of touch
- Connecting rings to the middle piece roll softly over the tongue without exerting pressure
- Middle link has been shortened compared to conventional bits for optimised anatomical adaptation
- Development based on scientific research from the University of Veterinary Medicine in Hanover, measuring mouth cavities of horses
- Suitable for all disciplines and across all training levels
Colour: Sensogan

The KK Ultra Kimblewick is available in three sizes: 125mm, 135mm and 145mm.
What is Sensogan and how does it relate to the mouthpiece?
Sensogan is the material used for the KK Ultra Kimblewick mouthpiece. The 16mm mouthpiece is described as mouth- and tongue-friendly, and is adapted to the anatomy of the horse's mouth.
How does the 45° angled middle link work in the KK Ultra Kimblewick?
The 45° angled middle link, also known as the lozenge, gently rolls over the central part of the horse's tongue when the reins are taken up, stimulating its sense of touch. The connecting rings also roll softly over the tongue without exerting pressure, enabling soft but precise aids.
How does the KK Ultra Kimblewick differ from a Pelham?
The KK Ultra Kimblewick offers a slightly lower lever action in comparison to a Pelham, while still acting on the tongue, poll and lower jaw for precise and effective aids.
What is the scientific basis behind the KK Ultra bit design?
The KK Ultra range was developed using results from a study of horse mouth cavities commissioned by Sprenger and carried out by the University of Veterinary Medicine in Hanover. The research provided knowledge about space conditions and bit positioning in the horse's mouth, informing the anatomical adaptations of the mouthpiece.
