BBEP Bombers Elliptical Pelham

Elliptical Pelham

The Elliptical is a 45 mm lozenge, it is stronger than the Control Plate due to it having a smaller surface area. Consequently, a horse using his tongue as a means of pushing against the bit and therefore taking control, will draw back and tuck his chin in, coming back to a better point of control.

The Pelham has attachments for two reins, one near the mouthpiece and one at the end of the shank.  These reins have similar action to the curb and bradoon reins in the double bridle.

All our bits are made from blue sweet iron, because it:

• oxidises easily
• encourages salivation
• helps bit acceptance
• is warm and sweet

Please note the blue will fade with use.

All Pelhams come with standard curb chain
