Help me find a bit please!

Hey guys, not really sure what this bit is called hence I'm having so much bother tracking one down lol, but essentially I'm looking for the mouthpiece on the bit below, but with full cheeks.

Any ideas where to get one?

Or eggbutt snaffle cheeks, but don't really want a loose ring.

I think Neue Schule make something similar, it would be worth looking at their website.

Ah ok thanks, I'll go have a google

Yes. Mataleb make them in an eggbutt.

I think Coronet make them as well. I think John Whitaker stock Metalab, and I think Barnstormers / Shires stock Coronet. I have never seen that bit in a full cheek.

Otherwise, I think cotswold make their own bits so might be worth an email and see if they will do a special order. You get heaps of angled lozenges from the likes of Sprenger and Neue Schule but not ported / half moon / quarter moon ones like that.

Great thanks! Yes its a half moon one I'm after. Now I just need to find somewhere in the UK that stocks it - not paying the crazy customs charges to have it shipped in from the US lol. Been caught out with that one before

I went to a talk by Heather Hyde from NS and I'm pretty sure they do a half moon mouthpiece. I've definitely seen one somewhere lately.
