Horse 3-Ring Butterfly Bit | Brass Lozenge Mouthpiece & Curb Chain | BI-0017

BI-0017 Premium 3-Ring Butterfly Bit with Brass Lozenge Mouthpiece

The BI-0017 is a sophisticated 3-ring Dutch Gag-style butterfly bit combining a warm gold brass double-jointed lozenge mouthpiece with polished stainless steel cheekpieces and a curb chain. This combination delivers a versatile, adjustable action — from mild schooling contact to more precise collection work — making it a favourite among riders who need flexibility across disciplines.

Key Features

• 3-ring cheekpiece (Dutch Gag style) — three oval rings per side allow rein attachment at different heights, adjusting poll and bar pressure to suit your horse's way of going
• Brass double-jointed lozenge mouthpiece — the warm gold alloy encourages salivation and acceptance; the lozenge centre piece distributes tongue pressure evenly without a nutcracker action
• Curb chain included — adds a subtle chin groove action when the lower rings are used, enhancing collection and response
• Stainless steel cheekpieces — rust-resistant, durable, and easy to maintain
• 12 sizes available — 10.0 cm (3.9") to 15.5 cm (6.1") for a precise, comfortable fit

How to Use

Attach reins to the top ring for a milder snaffle-like action, the middle ring for moderate poll pressure, or the lower ring for stronger collection with curb chain engagement. This versatility makes the BI-0017 ideal for horses in transition between a snaffle and a stronger bit.

Ideal For

Riders working on collection, lateral work, or horses that need a step up from a standard snaffle without moving to a fixed shank. Suitable for show jumping, eventing, and general schooling.

Size Guide: Measure your horse's mouth width from corner to corner and add 0.5 cm for the ideal fit.
