Fager Gustav Sweet Iron Dee Ring

A Registered Design

NOTE: Gustav can be used in two ways: Either with tongue relief or with bar relief.

For tongue relief - If you would describe your horse as the following:

• Inconsistent in the contact, needs to lay more on the bit.
• Pulls the reins down/forward when you take up the reins.
• Sensitive tongue.
• Attempts to put their tongue over the bit/plays with the tongue.
• Fussy mouthed.

For bar relief- Turn the bit upside down.

If you would describe your horse as the following:

• Inconsistent in the contact, needs to lay more on the bit.
• Bites on the bit, attempts to pull it back.
• Can through the head up when you take the reins.
• Sensitive bars and/or low palate

Gustav is constructed with a 100% super smooth surface, even around the joints which are designed to never interfere with or push against the palate. It is a very comfortable bit that shapes naturally around the tongue and relieves the bars from constant pressure.

Thanks to the smooth joints, this bit is a good option for horses who can overreact when you take the reins and have a hard time keeping a consistent contact with the bit.

Gustav is an ideal design for sensitive-mouthed horses who need to lay more on the bit and can overreact when you take the reins.

Dee rings are attached to the mouthpiece, and the reins’ contact will be more still towards the mouth. Dee rings will encourage a horse to keep the contact towards the bit and create a stable feeling for both the horse and rider. The Dee rings make the bit lay still in the mouth and prevent the bit from sliding side to side. The straight sides help with steering and framing.
