LightRider Leather Bitless Noseband

A LightRider Leather Bitless Noseband Attachment. The LightRider Leather Bitless Noseband attaches to most existing horse bridles and is available in Brown or Black High Quality Drum Dyed Leather.

Excellent Quality Drum Dyed Leather and Non-Rust Polished Stainless Steel Buckles.

The LightRider Leather Bitless Noseband Attachment is ideal for shows, pony club, jumping, dressage, endurance and pleasure riding / everyday horse riding.

The LightRider Leather Bitless Noseband's soft webbing chin strap keeps the noseband from twisting to give clear and direct communication. This means you can use lighter rein aids. When rein pressure is applied the chinstrap becomes snug but does not over-tighten due to the type of webbing used. 90% of the pressure is on top of the nose, and the horse can self release the chinstrap easily for eating, yawning etc. The bridle can also be used as a sidepull by clipping the chinstrap and noseband rings together (recommended to start with if your horse hasn't experienced a chinstrap before).

This LightRider Leather Bitless Noseband Attachment attaches to your existing bridle and is a perfect fit for all sizes of horse or pony as it is available in the following 5 sizes:

Each size has plenty of adjustment for the perfect fit. To find the correct size measure round your horse's nose midway between the prominent cheekbone and the corner of the lips (See Additional Images for the Measuring Guide!)

  How is the LightRider Leather Bitless Noseband different to other bitless bridles? 

Clearer, lighter communication with better responses because your horse can listen without pain. It has a unique sliding chinstrap that stops at snug. So therefore is comfortable which creates a happier horse for a better riding relationship.

The LightRider Bitless Bridle is closer in design to a side-pull bitless than the cross-under style bitless bridles. Its unique sliding chinstrap provides the control and most importantly the release from pressure when you loosen the rein. 

The LightRider Bitless Bridle is also more comfortable than many bitless bridles as is has no tight straps, allowing the horse freedom to eat, drink and yawn without you having to undo anything. It converts quickly and easily to a halter for leading, lungeing, tailing and ground play.

When you tighten the reins, the majority (approx. 95%) of the pressure is on the horse's nose. The chinstrap tightens to a point that keeps the noseband firmly in place. The particular webbing and the design used in the chinstrap stops it from over-tightening. You can feel for yourself by putting a finger under the noseband and another under the chinstrap then have someone pull on the reins at wither height. 

The LightRider Leather Bitless Noseband is available in the following colours:

• Brown (Dark Havanna) with stainless steel buckles and rings
• Black with stainless steel buckles and rings
