LightRider Bitless bridle improvements include a new noseband to cheekpiece attachment and new chinstrap keepers shown here on the Western bridle.

A new shipment of stock has just arrived so we now have most of theLightRider Bitless Nosebands, English Bitless Bridles, Euro Bitless Bridlesand Stockhorse Bitless bridles people were waiting for.

Cynthia Cooper, designer of the LightRider Bitless Bridle is always making improvements to the bridles. The new stock now has better chinstrap keepers made from the same soft, flexible material as the chinstrap, and the buckle has returned as the favourite form of adjustment.

All new bridles coming into stock now have an updated noseband to cheekpiece attachment the same as the Bitless Noseband design which has proven to be stronger.
The cheek pieces also have additional keepers to hold any excess length tidy when the higher holes are used, except for biothane bridles as the biothane material sits flatter. If anyone needs keepers for cheekpieces or chinstraps please contact us and we will send some free of charge.
