Loose Ring French Link Snaffle Bits
Prices from £9.99 to £10.99
The loose ring has much more movement and play than a fixed ring or
cheek. It discourages fixing, blocking, and leaning on the bit. It also
helps to encourage mouthing. The loose ring allows more movement so that
it follows the angle of the tongue, this is vital because as the
horse's overall outline changes it allows the bit to follow.
The double jointed french link mouth piece eliminates the nutcracker action, and disperses the pressure over the two joints rather than the one in the single jointed snaffle.
Reviews and Comments

To ascertain what size of bit you need, you will need to measure across the area in which the bit will sit. This can be done through trial and error, or you can measure this using an item such as a wooden spoon, section of garden hose or a piece of string. Place the item across the bars of the mouth, where the bit will sit and mark both sides. You may need assistance to do this! Then measure this width.
When measuring, you need to add ¼” to ½” to avoid any rubbing and pinching, especially when using a loose ring bit. Equally, the bit should not be too wide, as it may slide from side to side in the horse's mouth and cause uneven pressure.
