Bomber Loose Ring Ultra Comfy Lock Up Bit
Engineered for the most sensitive mouths in the barn — the Bomber Loose Ring Ultra Comfy Lock Up Bit represents the pinnacle of thoughtful bit design. Born from a growing recognition that today's finer, more sensitive horses need softer, more anatomically intelligent equipment, this bit delivers immediate relief, generous comfort, and precise lateral communication all in one beautifully crafted package.
Loose Ring Action — Instant Release, Instant Reset
The loose ring cheekpiece provides the most immediate release available in English bitting:
- Instant release from tongue and bar pressure the moment the rein softens, rewarding the horse quickly and clearly
- Immediate reset to a neutral position in the mouth between rein aids, allowing the horse to relax fully between requests
- Creates a lively, responsive feel that encourages acceptance and mouthing rather than bracing
- Bomber recommends using a bit strap to stabilize the mouthpiece and minimize sliding — and bit rubbers as an added precaution for comfort at the ring
The Ultra Comfy Lock Up Mouthpiece
Designed from the ground up for the sensitive horse, the Ultra Comfy Lock Up is a standout in Bomber's lineup:
- Double-locked center joint maintains the correct angle over the tongue even when rein contact is taken up — ensuring consistent, accurate pressure without the mouthpiece collapsing or twisting
- Despite the locked center, individual lateral aids are fully retained on each rein for precise, independent steering
- A generous curve follows the natural shape and contour of the horse's mouth, distributing contact more evenly and eliminating the sharp pressure points found in flatter or straighter mouthpieces
- Purpose-built for the modern horse — as selective breeding continues to produce lighter, more reactive horses, the Ultra Comfy addresses the real and growing need for a bit that communicates softly without losing clarity
Ideal For
- Extremely sensitive or fine-mouthed horses
- Horses that resist, tense, or over-react to conventional jointed snaffles
- Riders seeking the softest possible bit while retaining effective lateral aids
- Any horse that benefits from immediate pressure release and a generous, anatomical mouthpiece
