Showman® Premium Bits

Each Showman® bit is forged and finished by hand with solid welds and balanced leverage for professional use.

The S cheek delivers a smooth, rolling signal with progressive leverage, giving the rider a clean pickup, clear release, and a steady, balanced feel. Its flowing shape softens the first touch while still providing enough curb action to help with rate, balance, and light collection. This design keeps cues readable without getting heavy, making it a dependable choice for horses that go well in a snaffle but benefit from a bit more leverage.

The single-joint smooth snaffle mouthpiece keeps communication simple and direct. It offers a familiar bar feel with clear lateral flexion and straightforward pressure cues. The single joint gives some tongue and bar definition without overwhelming sensitivity. Polished, smooth edges keep the mouth comfortable, and the mild-to-moderate feel can be easily adjusted through rider hands and curb strap setup.
