The Korsteel Flexi Bits encourage acceptance of the bit and help to improve performance. Made from hi-tech plastic moulded around a stainless steel centre for added durability. The Korsteel Flexi bits are warmer to the touch than traditional stainless steel bits, making it ideal for younger horses or horses with a sensitive mouth. The Korsteel Flexi Jointed 3 Ring Dutch Gag bit uses a lever action which raises the bit in the horse`s mouth this helps the rider to maintain control of the horse. Poll pressure is also applied when the reins are placed on the lower ring. When using the Korsteel Dutch Gag two reins should be used. One on the main snaffle ring of the bit and either of the other lower rings. If only one rein is to be used when using the Korsteel Dutch Gag then roundings should be used to help maintain a better contact with the horses mouth. Ref: UTWB356
