Anyone know where i can find this bit?

[southerncomfort]

I bought this bit from a stall at a sheepdog trial so I've no idea on the manufacturer.

Out of all the bits I own, this is the one my youngster really likes, I think because of the shape and thinness of the mouthpiece, but it's too big for him.

Any ideas who makes it or where I can buy it please?

Thanks.

Hmm it could be a bomber bit - they are very similar anyway.

Thanks SP.

Gives me something to go on!

If you search for "thin curved french link snaffle, loose ring" you should find something. This looks quite similar. As always, more expensive options are available

They also have a thin HKM German silver snaffle but it has a lozenge.

Be careful with the cheap ones. My universal with lozenge mouthpiece by OptimalEquestrian ( ebay ) has rusted on the cheeks

Honestly I couldn't find anything like it. I need to improve my googling skills!

Yeah I'm a bit wary. I bought a knock off Myler and it was really good but I know some of the copies aren't well made.

Thank you!

One of mine is the same but with same colour rings, it's stamped HS germany in a circle and then Aurigan
Ooh just looked it's a sprenger,

I would have guessed Sprenger too.

Ah ha! Brilliant thanks! I'll go and Google Sprenger bits now. ?

I'm assuming it's a sprenger, I bought it off somebody local, just liked the style of it and thickness. I think I do have another that will be a cheaper make but just can't find it atm

Thanks. I think I've found a cheaper version but looks decent quality.

Plus saddle fitter sorted my saddle out today so we can finally crack on! ?
