Aluminum Western Pleasure Curb Bit

This striking bit is specifically designed for experienced horses in Western Pleasure disciplines. It features hand-engraved shanks made of cast aluminum paired with a sweet iron mouthpiece. Sweet iron is highly favored by horses as it naturally oxidizes, creating a sweet taste that promotes salivation and better acceptance of the bit. The design is engineered to minimize tongue pressure while offering gentle contact on the palate. Its straight shanks provide a much faster response time from the rider's hand, allowing for precise and subtle cues. The bit features a 5-inch mouthpiece with a 1/2-inch diameter, 8-inch shanks, and a 2 1/8-inch port.
