Fager Gustav Sweet Iron – Fixed Rings
Two functions, one revolutionary bit – adapted to your horse
The Fager Gustav bit is a technical masterpiece that fully adapts to your horse's needs. Thanks to its innovative design, this bit can be used in two ways :
For tongue relief
For rod relief
By simply turning the bit, you can determine the type of pressure distribution yourself — ideal for horses with specific sensitivities or changing preferences.
1. Use for tongue relief
Perfect for horses that:
Inconsistency in contact
Trying to put the tongue over the bit
Pulling away or rising on contact
Having a sensitive, restless mouth
This position gives the tongue space and encourages relaxation.
2. Use for rod relief (turn the bit over)
Ideal for horses that:
Getting behind the bit
Not wanting to work towards the hand
Dropping the contact
Feeling stubborn or stiff
Biting or pulling back on the bit
This position relieves pressure on the tongue and provides a more consistent feel across the bars.
