Blue Alloy Wilkie - Bevel Bit with Roller Mouth
What is a Wilkie/Bevel Bit and How Does It Work?
The Wilkie or Bevel Bit is a versatile and effective horse bit, known for its ability to provide enhanced control and communication between rider and horse. This bit features a unique design that allows for various multi-action training techniques by adjusting the positioning of the reins. The Wilkie bit offers more control than a traditional snaffle, promoting responsive movements, proper outline, head carriage, and better responsiveness.
The bit works by applying gentle pressure on the horse's tongue and bars, encouraging the horse to maintain appropriate carriage and improve responsiveness. It’s ideal for both experienced riders and beginners, allowing for clear communication with your horse.
The loose brass alloy discs in the centre of the bit can help soothe a sensitive or fussy-tongued horse, making it a great option for horses with nervous tendencies or young horses just starting their training. The joints in the bit also prevent the horse from grabbing onto or leaning on the bridle, helping to maintain a balanced connection.
