Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Fitting: Ensure the bridle is adjusted so the noseband sits two fingers below the cheekbone. The flash should be snug but not tight.
- Compatibility: This bridle uses standard billet attachments, making it compatible with most bits. Ensure the bit size matches your horse's requirements before assembly.
- Leather Care: Wipe down with a damp cloth after each use to remove sweat. Apply a high-quality leather conditioner weekly to prevent the leather from cracking.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the leather from drying out and stiffening.
