The Elliptical Lock Up eliminates the traditional nutcracker effect of three-piece bits, resulting in less pressure on the bars but increased pressure on the tongue. Therefore, the Elliptical Lock Up offers a softer alternative compared to a regular elliptical bit, while still being stronger than a Control Plate.

Loose rings provide the rider with direct contact with the horse and ensure immediate release. When the rider releases the rein, the pressure on the tongue and bars is relieved, and the bit returns to a neutral position in the horse's mouth.

The comfy mouthpiece has a more curved shape than a standard mouthpiece, which reduces pressure on both the bars and the tongue. This makes the bit an excellent choice for horses with sensitive mouths.

Bombers bits are handmade in South Africa and offer a unique opportunity to customize every detail. You can choose the type of mouthpiece you want, the type of rings and shanks, the thickness of the bit, and even adjust the length on the right and left sides of the mouthpieces. The mouthpieces are made of sweet iron and brass, shaped to distribute pressure evenly over a larger area, while the rings and shanks are made of stainless steel.
