About the Bit
A softness and lift you can truly feel!
The Neue Schule Verbindend is one of our miracle bits for helping horses who are heavy on the forehand, resistant to the aids or getting the tongue over the bit without severity as a side effect.
It is also helpful for riders looking for more refinement, bend and fine tuning in the lateral work.
Your horse will be immediately more lifted from the shoulder with complete freedom of the tongue to encourage full range of hindquarter action and a true self carriage and feel of working through.

Cheekpiece
The loose ring allows for an instant release from pressure and softer more refined feel through the reins. It also enables the horse to move the mouthpiece to where it is most comfortable.

How it should fit
The Verbindend Loose Ring must fit snug with only 2-5mm gap between the lip and the hole in the mouthpiece. This bit does run small due to the curve so please order ¼ of a size larger than your horses current well fitting bit.

No gimmick it works.
Felt that I was just a bit stuck with certain areas of my training. Although my horse is very light for some aids he can be heavy on the forehand and fall in on the right rein , which made inconsistent canter leads - maybe getting 2 out of 10. I have only ridden in it 3 times but gaining much more shoulder control and achieving 6 out of 10 correct canter. Found that he is tending to be a lot more relaxed in the mouth and lower in the poll. Still early days but very pleased so far. The service from BB is always 10 out of 10. Thank you.

Creating lift and lightness
I have a large warmblood who has a tendency to be heavy in the hand and on the forehand with work. I wasn't sure what to expect with the first ride in the bit but I have to say he was immediately lighter and very accepting of the bit with the first ride. I have been a big supporter of Sprenger (and I probably always will) but I am very impressed with Neue Schule Verbindend.

Gentle & Effective
I started my young Warmblood in the Neue Schule Starter from breaking in, she is built uphill so we wanted to encourage her to accept the bit and lengthen forward and down into the contact, after 12 months with the starter bit I moved her to the Verbindend to encourage lightness of the forehand and she has accepted the change amazingly the bit is effective and allows greater positioning while maintaining light supple contact and still allowing the horse to come through with no tension.

Creating lift!
I was so impressed with the responce by my OTT with the use of this bit. She had a tendency to be very strong in hand and now has lightened and softened in the front, so much so that we have been able to increase the intensity of our work. We are now heading for our first Elementary test this weekend and really believe that this bit has made a huge difference!

Big Change
I tried a few bits and my horse seemed to be the same in all of them. He is a Clydesdale X and has a very strong neck and tends to lock it and his jaw at times. I found that with this bit he has been far more responsive to my rein aids and he has been much softer and relaxed in the jaw. I highly recommend this bit, it's definately the best purchase I have made, I just wish that I had tried it earlier.

Great for my experienced horses
I was looking for a bit for my Advance/PSG dressage mare who is quite sensitive in the mouth and doesn't like much tounge pressure. I use this bit with my double bridle & find that of all the bits that I have tried with this horse, this bit works the best with our double bridle. The mare also work in the same bit in the snaffle bridle. She can get a bit still in the mouth and doesn't like to relax, with the metal used in this bit plus correct training helping her to relax, she is now chewing a little more and letting go in her jaw. Highly recommend the Neue Schule range and use them where possible.
