Overview

Why We Love This

Neue Schule takes on a "new school" approach towards bit technology. With the help of computer design, Neue Schule has the freedom to be more innovative with creation of mouthpieces and cheeks to promote overall comfort for the horse. Neue Schule Salox® Gold rapidly reaches mouth temperature so the bit feels less like a foreign body in the horse's mouth, and aids in relaxation. The Verbindend Loose Ring greatly emphasizes the signals through the rein. The Verbindend creates a channel for the tongue to lie in which allows the horse to soften and relax through the jaw, as well as prevent tongue evasions.

Reviews
Neue Schule Verbindend Loose Ring - 16mm is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 46.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Be Ready for Changes in Your Horse I bought the bit on the recommendation of my trainer for my 19-y-o TB gelding. He had successful kissing spine surgery 5 years ago, but still has some compensatory movement patterns that can be problematic. He softened his poll and bent correctly through his ribcage immediately, for the first time since I've owned him. Every ride was better than the one before, for a week. During the next two weeks, he became progressively more resistant, yet still bent correctly and his musculature was developing properly. It turns out that he was using new (and correct) muscles in response to the NS Verbindend bit, but was having fitness issues. A change to the NS Verbindend bit plus temporary use of low dosage Bute is allowing him to overcome his compensatory movement patterns.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing bit My horse absolutely loves this bit. It is so soft on the horses mouth and is easy to translate signals to my horse.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This bit works well for my horse. Glad I went up a 1/4 inch as advised.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from From Myler Level 1 snaffle not a good fit My gelding hated this bit - thought I'd try it but he prefers the Myler and just fussed with this one the entire ride and wouldn't relax. Guess if things are working with bit you have don't search for a silver bullet to get to next level. Very soft metal that does encourage a frothy mouth but also scratches.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not sure about fit Beautiful bit. But not sure about fit. It could be a hair small. Waiting for trainer to come to town to weigh in.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Neue Schule Verbindend Loose Ring Snaffle My mare is fussy in the mouth and tosses her head. I've tried numerous bits both cheap and very expensive. The Neue Schule Loose Ring Snaffle works...no head tossing and she stays on the bit and round. We both love this bit!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A miracle for a horse with contact issues I have a young horse that is extremely fussy in the mouth and I literally had a bucket full of bits trying to find one that worked. I bought this as a last resort and it made a huge difference. He's still fussy but after warming up he will stretch nicely to the bit. This was impossible before this bit.
Date published: 2018-09-04
Rated 5 out of 5 by from My horse seems to like it! My horse can be funny in the contact, but even after only a handful of rides using this bit he really seems more willing to push into the contact. Last couple of rides he has even gotten nice and foamy from accepting the bit! I think the shape of this bit really helps him stay soft, so you can "whoa" if you need to without stopping their hind end from coming through.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from nice bit I like the Neue Schulz range of bits in general. This is a great bit for a horse with a tense mouth. I also have the tranz angle lozenge.

8 - The Neue Schule Verbindend Horse Bit
Heavy on the forehand? The NS Verbindend greatly emphasises the signals through the rein. By encouraging clarity of the aids, and promoting a true outline the freedom through the shoulder can be developed, thus promoting self carriage and thoroughness. The NS Verbindend eradicates tongue evasions by creating a channel for the tongue to lie in allowing the horse to soften and relax through the jaw. This mouthpiece can also enhance the development of the bend for lateral work and smaller circles. The 12mm bridoon with neat 55mm rings is used with the Weymouth or on a small head. The 12mm with the 70mm rings normally offers extra lift from the shoulder and takes up less room in the mouth than thicker mouthpieces. If you are a pleasure rider and simply desire to establish a lighter, softer way of going this is the bit for you. ***Please note - due to the curvature of the mouthpiece the NS Verbindend shortens when placed in your horse's mouth, we recommend that you order 1/4" larger than your normal size***
