Pelham bit from Bombers.
The Swales Pelham Bit is designed to provide control specifically for strong horses that tend to lean on the bit. It is extremely popular in the jumping and driving world and is often used in other disciplines for faster work on an experienced horse that becomes a bit "over enthusiastic".
This is the only Pelham that removes the headpiece, as the cheekpieces are attached to the inner rings. This has a significant effect on the leverage and gives more pressure on the jaws, which causes a lifting action.
The shank is 55mm long.
Happy Tongue is a straight mouthpiece with tongue relief without being curved, which makes it slightly sharper than the curved mouthpiece.
The bit is made of sweet iron and will lose its color over time. Be careful to dry the bit thoroughly after each use to prevent it from rusting and becoming rough.
