Tom Balding Advantage Bit with Billy Allen Mouthpiece – Stainless with dots finish
The Tom Balding Advantage Bit is expertly crafted for riders seeking precision, balance, and responsiveness. Featuring a heavier 3/8" stainless steel tube shank with signature dot detailing, this design delivers a quicker action and release, enhanced by the added weight for refined communication between horse and rider.
This bit is equipped with our trusted Billy Allen© mouthpiece, known for its smooth, controlled feel and ability to encourage softness without harshness—making it a versatile choice across a variety of disciplines.
All Tom Balding mouthpieces are 5 1/8" wide and constructed from sweet iron, a material that naturally oxidizes over time. This light rusting process promotes salivation, helping create a more relaxed, responsive horse.
