5.25″ Herm Sprenger KK NovoContact D Ring Snaffle

Here is one of our favorite bits, on our favorite color! This ‘brassy’ bit is from Herm Sprenger and is a KK single jointed NovoContact D ring snaffle in 5.25″, in a 16mm, designed for horses who have a narrower palate and desire a bit more substance to their bit. Aurigan mouthpiece encourages salvation and bit acceptance. In very good used condition, showing just a couple of shallow/minor teeth marks. Hunter D ring. **remember, HS bits are measured hole to hole, not ring to ring** Per Herm Sprenger:

Novocontact bits are designed to create a unique oval shape which widens the contact surface on the tongue while the rider keeps a steady contact. As the rider gives a rein aid the mouthpiece turns forward and the contact surface gets narrower, ensuring more precise and effective communication. Novocontact bits improve the interaction between horse and rider for a better contact and acceptance of the bit. Tests have shown that single jointed Novocontact bits are highly recommended for horses that do not take the contact confidently. They also provide added benefit for horses with a sensitive mouth, since the rider is able to give precise but soft aids. Recommended for horses with a sensitive mouth that aren’t confident about taking contact.
