BUSSE Pelham Bit Stainless Steel, 16 mm, Short Shanks – stable contact and quick response for jumping
The BUSSE Pelham bit in stainless steel, 16 mm, short shanks is a single-jointed, solid bit built for riders who need precise but responsive aids in the arena or cross-country. The short shanks deliver faster pressure and just as fast a release – exactly what you need when reaction time counts in the jump-off.
Every connecting link is matched to the bit's size and thickness, so it sits quietly and securely in the horse's mouth without shifting. Depending on how you buckle the reins, you get direct action on tongue and bars, a medium leverage on tongue, bars and poll, or a stronger, targeted leverage using two rein pairs. Made from durable stainless steel, it's built to withstand daily yard use and competition.

Short shanks transfer rein pressure faster and release it just as quickly, giving you tighter control with less lag when jumping.

Who is this bit suitable for?
Due to its leverage action, a Pelham belongs in the hands of experienced riders capable of fine, differentiated rein aids.
Warning/safety instructions for bits
A bit should have the correct width for the horse's mouth, which is measured on the horse in advance. The BUSSE bit width gauge is suitable for this.
The choice of the right type of bit is individual and depends on many factors - such as the horse's level of training, its mouth shape and sensitivity, and the rider's hand. Therefore, it makes sense to try out dentures.
When strapping in the bit, make sure that it is strapped in correctly: the BUSSE logo is on the left side of the horse's head, with the hollow side of the bit pointing towards the throat and the other side towards the mouth outlet . (If the bit is correctly positioned in front of you, you can read the size label on the right shank the right way up - it is not upside down.)
It is important that the bit fits correctly into the bit straps of the bridle or curb is buckled. When buckled correctly using the bit straps, approx. 2-3 small wrinkles will form at the corners of the mouth.
The bit should be checked regularly for signs of wear, such as sharp edges, and replaced if necessary. Please only use the bit if it is in an appropriate condition that does not harm the horse's well-being.
