Trust Sweet Iron Hanging Cheek, Elitpical

The hanging cheek by Trust is a special version of the olive head bit with small rings attached to the top of the olive head rings. The cheek piece is attached to the small ring and the reins to the olive head ring. This gives you a slight leverage with this bit. The double-broken mouthpiece is one of the standard mouthpieces and distributes the pressure on the tongue, the interdental space and the corners of the mouth. With this mouthpiece, saliva production and chewing activity is stimulated naturally, as the Sweet Iron alloy forms surface rust on contact with moisture. This rust tastes sweet to most horses, so the bit is very well received and accepted. The hanging cheek bit is ideally suited to ease the horse's transition from a normal snaffle to a double bridle. It is also often used by pony riders in the higher classes.

Note: When not in use, a thin layer of orange-brown rust will develop on the mouthpiece, this can be removed with a damp cloth and is not a quality defect!
