Korsteel Polo Pelham Bit

This Pelham bit provides significantly more leverage than a standard snaffle. The shank design creates a curb action that offers increased control, making it a better choice for horses that require more stopping power or precision during intense riding.

Yes, you can use this bit with a single rein if you attach roundings to the bit rings. This setup allows for the leverage of a Pelham while maintaining the simplicity of a single-rein connection.

The ported design provides tongue relief and makes it physically difficult for the horse to place their tongue over the bit. This helps prevent evasion and encourages a more consistent, comfortable contact.

While specifically designed for the demands of polo, this bit is suitable for any discipline where a rider needs extra leverage and one-handed control. It is a common choice for schooling or showing when a horse needs a stronger bit than a snaffle.

The 6-inch shank provides a moderate amount of leverage. It is long enough to offer clear, effective communication for control, but short enough to remain responsive without being overly severe for a well-trained horse.
