The effect of the Kimblehook is more direct than curbs with longer shanks: the lower the rein is placed on the sides, the sharper effect this bit will create. However, the joints will never interfere or push against the palate.
Fager Fredric is a very comfortable bit which naturally conforms around the tongue, relieving the bars from constant pressure. This design is ideal for sensitive horses that easily get sore or bruised.
Hooks and chain 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.
