Trust Inno Sense Eggbutt - Port Medium

Trust Inno Sense Eggbutt Port Medium

Inno Sense

Bits from the Inno Sense collection can be used for every horse and are particularly suitable for young horses and/or horses with a sensitive mouth. The synthetic material is FDA approved, which means the material does not contain plasticizers and is non-toxic to people and animals.

Horses that are ridden with an Inno Sense bit follow the hand easily and accept the bit smoothly.

Port Medium

Inno Sense Port Medium bits are crafted from elastic plastic, offering a slightly firmer feel compared to the Inno Sense Flexi Soft bits. These bits are slightly flexible and feature a tongue port, allowing greater freedom for the tongue while applying increased pressure to the bars

Straight Mouthpiece 

A straight mouthpiece is a single-piece bit that applies pressure to the tongue, bars, and lips. The shape and thickness of the mouthpiece influence how and where this pressure is distributed within the horse’s mouth.

• A straight mouthpiece with a tongue port applies more pressure to the bars while allowing the tongue greater freedom.

Generally, the straighter and thicker the mouthpiece, the more pressure it places on the tongue.

Eggbutt Rings

Eggbutt rings offer a more stable feel in the horse's mouth, providing a direct connection from the rider’s hands to the horse's mouth. The fixed design of the eggbutt rings helps reduce movement, allowing for a more consistent contact. This can be beneficial for horses that are sensitive to excessive movement in their bit, offering a steadier and more predictable feel.

Why Proper Sizing Matters

Choosing the correct bit size is essential for your horse’s comfort and performance. A bit that is too small can create painful pressure points and damage the mouth, while a bit that is too large may slide through the horse's mouth, causing discomfort and pinching the corners, potentially leading to wounds. Always ensure the bit fits snugly without being restrictive to keep your horse comfortable and responsive.

Understanding Color Changes

Sweet Iron bits naturally change color over time as they come into contact with humidity. The vibrant blue surface will transition to a greyish-brown tone due to oxidation. This process is entirely normal and improves the bit’s functionality by creating a sweet taste that stimulates salivation and enhances acceptance.

If the bit isn’t used regularly, a thicker layer of rust may form. This is easily removed with a brush or cloth before use to maintain the bit's performance.
