Maria Titanium Kimblehook

Fager Maria has everything you could want from a bit! It is incredibly comfortable, featuring 100% super-smooth surfaces, including the joints. Combined with the titanium material and kimblehook sidepieces, you will get a consistent feeling and calm mouth, a more framed feeling without the horse getting too strong.

Fager's smooth joints are designed to never press against the sides of the palate or create uneven pressure over the bars. It makes the pressure over the tongue more gentle.

The small tongue relief, in combination with the smooth joints, makes this bit a good option for horses with a sensitive tongue who can open their mouth, pull the reins, and move the tongue around.

Material
Titanium is a tasteless metal that naturally adapts to the mouth's temperature, encouraging the horse to accept the bit and be more comfortable.

We usually recommend a Titanium bit for sensitive-mouthed horses who can react to other metals, e.g. red marks or sores developing, despite a soft contact from the hands.

Titanium gives a super light feeling in the hand and quicker response compared to a heavier bit, particularly when combined with the correct mouthpiece for the individual horse.

Kimblehook
The Kimblehook can be described as a fixed ring with the possibility of adding leverage when needed. The further down you place your rein; the more pressure will be added and divided between chin, poll, and mouth. The stable feeling Kimblehook creates can be good for fuzzy and worried horses that get strong, unbalanced, and hard to turn. The Kimblehook puts the pressure further down in the mouth which can help a horse that gets too high in the neck. Kimblehooks are always used together with a chain or strap behind the chin.

Curb chain and hooks are included.

Please note, horses who are wide over the premolars/teeth may need to size up in this bit due to the upper shanks. This is because the sidepiece of the bridle is attached to the upper shank of the bit, which is placed higher up where some horses are wider than others.
