A Registered Design

Fager John is the ideal choice If you would describe your horse as the following;

  • Pulls on the bit, yet over-reactive to increased pressure on the reins.
  • Develops cuts, sores, and rubs easily at the corners of the mouth.
  • Unsteady in the contact.
  • Difficult to steer.

John is Fager's double-jointed Fullcheek bit. The design is constructed to be 100% smooth everywhere, even around the joints for ultimate comfort.

The joints of the bit are cleverly designed to ensure they don’t ever push against the palate or sit on top of the bars. John is an extremely comfortable bit which contours naturally around the horse’s tongue.

This design is ideal for horses that easily cut or bruise.

Fullcheek sidepieces give a framed and stable feeling. It can help with steering and bending, keeping the horse's shoulders in place. It also protects the mouth corners from getting pinched or rubbed.

As an added benefit, the straight and thin design enhances the rider’s aids to be more effective, direct and precise than ever before.

BIT GUIDE & INFORMATION from Fager.


TIPS & INFORMATION

  • Sweet iron is meant to rust. Most horses love the taste it gives.
  • When you receive your bit it has protection oil to prevent it from start rusting before being used. It might make the bit look a bit filthy as first sight. The oil can be either cleaned with a simple towel/paper before start using it or not. The oil is harmless for the horse.
  • If you want to delay the rusting process, wipe the bit dry after every use.
  • Do you think your bit is too rusty after a long time use? Put the sweet iron in Coca Cola and the rust will go away. It is the phosphorus in Coca Cola that makes the rust dissolve. Please be careful using any other strong chemicals with phosphorus in it! Coca Cola works fine, we promise.
    Note that the blue color of the sweet iron will go away or fade along with the rust when you choose to do this.
