Williams Bomber Blue - 130mm

The Bombers Williams Bomber Blue – 130mm combines the versatile Williams cheekpiece with Bombers' lightweight, non-metal Bomber Blue nylon composite mouthpiece.

The Williams cheekpiece provides multiple rein positions, allowing the rider to adjust the action of the bit. The centre ring functions as a loose ring, while the lower ring introduces additional poll pressure. The mouthpiece runs quickly up the centre pin and is designed to provide a fast release.

The ported Bomber Blue mouthpiece provides tongue relief, while the lightweight nylon composite material is designed to encourage salivation. It is particularly suited to horses that object to traditional metal mouthpieces.

Bombers notes that the Williams is a good option for faster-paced disciplines and horses where increased bit width may be beneficial, including horses with fleshy mouths.

Orange bit protectors are included.

Important: The choice and fitting of a horse bit should take the individual horse, mouth conformation and rider's discipline into account. Always check current competition rules where applicable.

The Williams cheekpiece provides multiple rein attachment options:

• Bottom ring: introduces additional poll pressure.

The mouthpiece runs quickly up the centre pin and is designed to provide an extra-fast release. Bombers states that the Williams cheekpiece encourages flexion and helps prevent drifting.

The design can be particularly useful where quick responses and greater control are required.

Mouthpiece

The Bomber Blue mouthpiece is a lightweight, ported nylon composite designed to provide tongue relief while offering a non-metal contact surface.

Its porous material is designed to encourage salivation and acceptance. Bombers recommends the mouthpiece as a first choice for starting young horses and for horses that object to metal mouthpieces.

The four available ports are scaled according to bit width, helping the port sit accurately over the bars and reducing rocking that can occur when the port is too wide.
