Icelandic Bits

Icelandic Horse Bits — Specialist Bits for the Icelandic Horse

Icelandic bits are specially designed for the unique conformation and gaits of the Icelandic horse — a breed renowned for its tölt, flying pace, and sensitive, willing temperament. These bits are typically lighter, shorter in the shank, and gentler in action than standard bits, reflecting the Icelandic tradition of riding with a light, sympathetic hand.

  • Designed for Icelandic horses — sized and weighted to suit the smaller, more sensitive mouth of the Icelandic breed
  • Tölt & pace friendly — bit designs that encourage relaxation in the jaw and freedom of movement for the natural gaits
  • Variety of mouthpieces — mullen mouth, single joint, double joint, and ported options to suit individual horses
  • Icelandic-style cheekpieces — including loose ring, D-ring, and shanked designs specific to Icelandic horsemanship traditions
  • Premium stainless steel & sweet iron options — durable construction with materials that encourage salivation and bit acceptance

Whether you ride tölt, trot, or pace, our Icelandic Bits collection has the right bit to help you and your Icelandic horse perform at your best with comfort and harmony.
