Beval Bits
Beval bits have fixed cheekpieces with additional attachment positions for the cheek straps and reins. The selected position can change the stability of the bit, the rein angle and the degree of leverage.
The overall action also depends on the mouthpiece, material, fit and the rider’s hand. Choose the mildest suitable rein position and assess the horse’s response continuously.
What is a Beval bit?
A Beval provides separate or shaped attachment positions for the cheekpiece and rein. The model and rein position can alter the angle and provide limited mechanical amplification.
Action and selection
At ByLynga, Beval and 2.5-/3-ring bits are separate categories. A Pelham normally has distinct rein rings and a curb chain. Compare the actual construction and check current competition rules.
Fit and safety
The mouthpiece should sit centrally without pinching or excessive sideways movement. Check the mouth, wear and the rules applicable to your discipline. Overall action depends on mouthpiece, fit, rein use and the individual horse.
