Metalab Pelham Elite, ported barrel mouth, short lever

The Pelham is recommended especially when the balance of power with the horse is uneven. Particularly in the case of a slightly frail rider, such as a child, riding a very strong or very energetic horse. The Pelham bit is also recommended for its downward effect, as it encourages horses to yield in their neck.

1. Curved mouthpiece: The curved mouthpiece refers to the central part of the bit that rests in the horse's mouth. This ergonomic design conforms to the shape of the horse's mouth, providing a more comfortable fit and reducing pressure points.
2. Short shanks: The shanks of the Pelham Elite bit are shorter than those of traditional bits, allowing for a more direct and precise action from the rider on the horse. Short shanks also offer a moderate leverage effect, helping the rider to obtain a quick and precise response from the horse.
3. Diameter of 14mm: The diameter of 14mm refers to the thickness of the bit. A thinner diameter may be more comfortable for some horses, while also allowing for finer and more precise communication between the rider and the horse.
