Beris tandem bit with tongue port

The Beris Tandem combines a mouthpiece with a hackamore-type action, using a single pair of reins. It acts on the nose, the jaw and the poll; when more rein pressure is applied, it adds a slight gag effect. Beris designed it for horses that are too sensitive for the action of a bit alone, but cannot be ridden in a hackamore alone. It comes with its curb chain fitted.

• The mouthpiece: straight, with a flattened 30 mm high tongue port that leaves room for the tongue and stops it going over the bit. Many horses relax and chew more.
• Material: food-grade plastic, very smooth, which glides even in horses that salivate little. Thickness 18 mm.
• Shanks: stainless steel shaped, welded and polished by hand in Germany.

Rinse the mouthpiece in clean water after each use. The bit is fitted correctly when the engraving is on the left side of the mouth. Note that teeth can damage the plastic.
