Product description

Characteristics Poponcini Bits

• Poponcini bits are characterized by having an extremely soft mouthpiece and guarantee optimal comfort for the sensitive horse's mouth.
• The shape of the mouthpiece allows a horse to close its mouth properly, which means that it will relax more quickly and be much calmer with its head and tongue.
• Poponchini bits have a non-toxic, anti-allergic silicone mouthpiece with a flexible metal core.

PLEASE NOTE: Because Poponcini bits are so soft, we can NOT give any WARRANTY on these bits!
