The Neue Schule Full Cheek Bit is an ideal bit for horses that need a little firmer encouragement when asking to flex and turn. The tranz angled lozenge encourages a true contact and higher level of responsiveness than for example a french link. The tranz lozenge is set on at an angle activating more feel over the tongue, so when a contact is taken, the rounded lozenge rolls down smoothly into and over the tongue, utilizing feel but not abusing it. This makes the tranz angle different in its action from conventional bits, and thereby enables clearly defined aids to be given through the reins. This Neue schule bit is made with a mouthpiece constructed out of Salox, a warmer, sweeter, softer metal containing a very high copper content and Neue Schule additive to maximise oxidation (tarnish and nickel free). Salox helps to promote salivation, mouthing, acceptance and promote better communication.
