beris: bits built on experience

beris is a Dutch brand that focuses entirely on horse bits. It grew out of many years of experience in bit manufacturing, and in Germany it is distributed by Waldhausen in Cologne. The range is broad: eggbutt, comfort and butterfly bits, the beris PRIME line and mouthpieces made of food-safe synthetic material or leather. That means you can find a suitable option for many horses and stages of training.

We carry a large part of this range. For everyday riding there are loose ring snaffles, eggbutt bits and D-ring bits, single or double jointed or with a straight bar. For jumping and dressage you will also find the pelham, gag, 3-ring bit and curb bit. Mouthpieces with a comfort bar, tongue port or leather bar cater for different preferences. Gel bit guards, curb chains and curb straps complete the range.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find the right bit size?
Measure the width of your horse's mouth from one corner to the other using a bit gauge or a piece of string. Add about half a centimetre so the bit does not pinch but does not slide from side to side either.

What is the advantage of a straight bar over a jointed bit?
A straight bar lies quietly in the mouth and acts evenly on both sides. Jointed bits act a little more precisely on one side. Which suits best depends on the shape of the mouth, the level of training and your riding style.

What are gel bit guards for?
They sit between the bit ring and the corner of the mouth and stop rubbing or pinching there. They are a simple addition, especially with loose ring bits.
