There should be enough space to fit two fingers flat between the horse’s chin and the strap, ensuring the bit "engages" only when the shanks reach a 45-degree angle for a clear signal and release.Q: Is the nickel-plated steel durable enough for daily training?A: Absolutely. The nickel plating provides a smooth, rust-resistant finish that is well-accepted by horses and designed to withstand the moisture and friction of regular use while maintaining its structural integrity.Q: What level of rider and horse is this bit best suited for?A: This curb bit is best suited for experienced partnerships. It is a fantastic tool for horses transitioning out of a snaffle or for riders looking to refine their cues and achieve a higher level of performance in Western or driving disciplines.Item Number/SKU: 25-209-NP
