FES Loomis Cheek Spoon Bit 5" (12,7cm)

This is a nice finishing level bit that has swept back loomis cheeks to quicken the response from the rider’s hand to the bit with minimal hand movement. The medium height spoon port allows mild palate pressure, reminding horses to keep their head in the ‘comfort zone’, then working on the bars of the mouth.

This bit has stainless steel cheeks and sweet iron mouthpiece, with sweet tasting copper inlay to promote salivation within the mouth. The purchase rings are flared outward to reduce the risk of rubbing and pinching the horse’s cheeks.
