Neue Schule Pony Tranz Angled Lozenge Loose Ring Bit

Salox Gold is a high-copper alloy designed to warm up to the horse's mouth temperature much faster than stainless steel. This rapid warming helps reduce the initial shock of a cold bit, making the horse more likely to accept the contact and relax into the bridle.

A traditional jointed bit can create a 'nutcracker' effect that puts pressure on the roof of the mouth. The angled lozenge sits flatter on the tongue and distributes pressure more evenly, which encourages a softer, more consistent contact without the pinching sensation.

Yes, this bit is specifically designed for comfort. The 10 mm mouthpiece is relatively slim, which is ideal for ponies with smaller mouths or limited space, while the lozenge design minimizes tongue pressure to prevent discomfort.

The loose ring design offers immediate release of pressure, which is essential for clear communication during training. Because the bit encourages the horse to seek a soft contact rather than evade the bit, it helps build the foundational trust needed for daily schooling.

No, this bit is not compatible with bit guards. The design is intended to function as a standalone piece, and adding guards may interfere with the intended action of the loose rings.
