BIT QUIZ

Compare similar bit models

Many of our bits may look similar, but they actually have unique features that can make a huge difference for you and your horse.

What's the difference between Mia and Matilda?

Both Mia and Matilda have the same shape with laying joints and a lockup effect. These bits lock upwards and cannot bend upwards against the palate, making it more stable. The Horizontal joints will lay flat against the tongue and palate to give a more gentle pressure on the tongue than vertical joints. This can be good for horses that can overreact when you take the reins and need to keep the consistent contact through every movement. It's also a good option for horses with a low palate and sensitive tongue, as it's very gentle, thanks to the laying joints.

Mia vs Matilda

The difference between Mia and Matilda is that Matilda has a port/tongue relief. This means that Matilda will give less pressure to the tongue, and more pressure to the bars while Mia will give more pressure to the tongue and less pressure to the bars.

Mia

The mouthpiece of Mia gives bar relief and locks upwards, which can be good for horses with a low palate, small tongue and sensitive bars. This option is good for horses with a small mouth.

Matilda

The mouthpiece of Matilda has a tongue relief and locks upwards, which can be suitable for horses with a low palate and sensitive bars who still have a big tongue and prefer tongue relief.
