Questions & answers
How do I pick the right bit size?
Answered by The Connected RiderMeasure your horse’s mouth from corner to corner with a bit measure or a piece of string. A snaffle should show about 1/4″ on each side, and a loose ring a little more so the rings don’t pinch.
Which bit is right for my horse?
Answered by The Connected RiderEvery horse is different, and how strong a bit feels depends on the rider’s hands and the horse’s sensitivity. Ask your trainer, or use Ask a question and we’ll help.

Fit guide
Bit sizing and cheek types
| Cheek | What it does |
|---|---|
| Loose ring | Rings move freely, encouraging the horse to mouth the bit. |
| Eggbutt / D-ring | Fixed cheeks hold the bit steady and help prevent pinching. |
| Full cheek | Helps with steering. Use bit loops to keep the cheeks upright. |
| Gag | The bit slides up when you use the rein, adding poll pressure. |
| Pelham / kimberwick | Snaffle plus curb action with a curb chain. |
| Hackamore | Bitless: pressure on the nose, chin and poll. |
Measuring for a bit
- Mouth width: measure your horse's mouth corner to corner with a bit measure or string, or measure your current bit inside the cheeks.
- A snaffle should show about 1/4" each side. Give a loose ring a little more so it doesn't pinch.
- Thickness: measured at the cheek. Thicker isn't always gentler: horses with low palates or fleshy tongues often prefer a thinner bit.
