Novocontact bits are designed to create a unique oval shape which widens the contact surface on the tongue while the rider keeps a steady contact. As the rider gives a rein aid the mouthpiece turns forward and the contact surface gets narrower, ensuring more precise and effective communication. These bits improve the interaction between horse and rider for a better contact and acceptance of the bit.  Single jointed NovoContact Sensogan Loose Ring Snaffle bits are highly recommended for horses with a sensitive mouth that do not take the contact confidently.
