Metalab Pelham Elite, ported barrel mouth, long lever

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

1. Curved mouthpiece: The curved mouthpiece of the Pelham Elite bit conforms to the natural shape of the horse's mouth, providing a comfortable fit and reducing pressure points. This ergonomic design promotes relaxation in the horse and encourages a softer response to the rider's actions.
2. Long branches: The branches of the Pelham Elite bit are longer than those of traditional models, offering a more pronounced leverage effect. Long branches enable a more subtle communication between the rider and the horse, while also providing increased control, especially during transitions and changes of direction.
3. Diameter of 14mm: The 14mm diameter of the Pelham Elite bit ensures an optimal thickness for clear and precise communication between the rider and the horse. This medium diameter is suitable for most horses while providing a good balance between comfort and effectiveness.
