Sprenger MAX-Control D-Ring 16 mm with locking mechanism

The MAX-Control is a double jointed bit which, at fi rst glance, cannot be distinguished from other double jointed loose ring snaffles. However, it is a correction or training bit which locks at a certain angle and thus becomes a straight bar.

The bit lies very well in the mouth when the horse is working properly. When the horse opposes the rider‘s hand the more intensive rigid effect occurs.
