Korsteel Uxeter Kimberwicke

The central copper roller is designed to encourage salivation and help the horse relax their jaw. By keeping the horse's mouth active, it can prevent them from fixing on the bit or leaning heavily on the forehand.

The slotted cheekpiece offers two distinct rein positions. Placing the reins in the lower slot increases the leverage and the severity of the bit, while the upper slot provides a milder, more direct feel.

Yes, the fixed-cheek design provides more stability and control than a standard loose-ring snaffle. It is a good choice for horses that need a bit more guidance or tend to lean, as it offers a clearer signal to the rider.

No, this specific model does not include a curb chain. You will need to source a compatible curb chain separately if you intend to use one to regulate the leverage.

It is stronger than a basic snaffle due to the leverage provided by the Kimberwicke cheek design, but it is generally considered a moderate bit. Its intensity depends largely on which rein slot you choose and how soft your hands are.
