Want the look of a double without using the two seperate bits?
-The Pelham is a compromise between a snaffle and a weymouth- purists will therefore argue they should only be used with two reins, however due to the fixed shanks one can never truely differentiate between the two reins.
- Often used with great success with roundings or split reins, particularly with children and strong ponies as too much knitting can be hazardous!
-Can assist with strong horses and ponies with brakes and lowering of the head.
- This version of the Pelham is often used in showing on horses where the look of a double bridle is prefered, but a short mouth prohibits the use of two bits.  (can also be known as a Rugby Pelham)
