The Bombers Segundo Pelham has a blue sweet iron mouthpiece that is warm and sweet because it oxidises easily. It is designed to produce salivation and help the horse to accept the bit and comfortably relax his jaw. This bit can be used with two reins or pelham roundings.
The loose Segundo port alleviates tongue pressure while keeping an even pressure on the bars of the mouth, encouraging the horse to stay light to the contact. Horses find it difficult to lean on this mouthpiece or put their tongue over the bit. The pelham puts pressure on the poll, and to the chin groove where the curb chain lies when the curb rein is used.
This bit can work well on horses that have a narrow jaw, those who find straight bar bits uncomfortable on their tongue and those that tend to lean on the contact.
Please note that the blue will fade with use.
