The eggbutt bit Soft Flex Soft is designed for the most sensitive horses. Integrated ring guards help prevent lips from touching the metal, so the horse only comes into contact with the soft material. The ultra-soft and flexible mouthpiece encourages chewing, relaxation, and a steady contact.

The outer layer is made of a soft synthetic compound, free from toxic substances and designed for safe everyday use. Its smooth finish protects delicate oral tissues, while the flexible internal core provides just the right amount of movement to fit the horse's mouth. Horses that dislike rigid or metal bits often show more relaxation and increased salivation with this material.

The flexible straight mouthpiece gently follows the natural shape of the horse's mouth and avoids the nutcracker effect of jointed bits. Due to its high flexibility, it absorbs hand actions and distributes pressure, making it easier for sensitive horses to extend forward and downward in a comfortable contact. With a thickness of 20 mm for a wide distribution of pressure, it is particularly gentle on delicate tongues and bars.

With eggbutt rings, the mouthpiece remains more stable in the horse's mouth, limiting excessive lateral movements. This stability is suitable for horses who prefer a calmer bit and helps them maintain confidence in the contact. These consistent and reliable hand actions contribute to a soft but secure connection throughout the session.

Ideal for

• The most sensitive and thoughtful horses who appreciate regular contact
• Young horses learning to accept the bit
• Riders who prioritise gentle, low-pressure aids
