Are they really worth it?
Have been using a kk ultra when schooling my girl and she goes very nicely in it.
I use a plain snaffle for hacking which she is also good in.
I wanted to combine the 2 as she seems to prefer a fixed ring (hacking bit) but seems much softer in the kk type joint and she seems to prefer the metal of the kk.
I decided to have a look at a fixed ring kk and couldn't believe i'd be looking at near on £150 to buy one (the one I use is borrowed!!)
My question is are the expensive bits really worth the money or would I be better off just buying a fixed ring with a lozenge joint?
