Product Details
SPECIAL OFFER: Buy a LightRider Bitless Bridle or Bitless Noseband and receive $20 off the BITLESS RIDING BASICS DVD.
Email me before you order to get the discount code, so the DVD can be shipped with your bridle.
Ideal for educating, trail riding, endurance, horsemanship, ponies and pleasure riding. The rope LightRider Bridles give your horse the most comfort and you the most versatility of use as a halter (to tie solid with a lead rope) and as a bitless bridle.
This is the original design I started with and the one I use most myself for comfort and convenience.
Comes with black 10mm poly braid rope reins to match the size (add note if you want longer reins) - these reins are designed for lightness and maximum release of the chinstrap. See more info on the reins here.
Pony=2m reins, Cob=2.6m (100") reins, Full=3m (118") reins, W'Blood/Draft=3.6m (142")reins.
Features:
- The swivel snaps on the reins enable you to quickly unclip them to make a lead rope and are easily replaced.
- You can tie solid in this bridle when using a lead rope - or the reins without the rein clips on.
- The covered noseband is made of a soft, poly material, the same as that used for rope reins to provide more comfort for the horse.
- The LightRider Natural is made from the best marine rope and has top quality brass hardware that is strong, durable and rust proof.
Unique Chinstrap:
The purpose of the soft webbing chin strap is to help the noseband stay in place when pressure is applied to the reins - this keeps the noseband from twisting to give clear and direct communication.
When rein pressure is applied the chinstrap becomes snug but does not over-tighten due to the type of webbing used, so most of the pressure is on the top of the nose. This bridle is usually well accepted by sensitive horses.
Sizes/Colours: Mini to warmblood/draft, with coloured headstalls: Black, Black/gold zig zag, Brown/gold zig zag, Purple or Blue with black contrasting browband, noseband and chinstrap.
Reins are all black except for the Zig Zag colours which match the bridle colour.

Thanks for my Rope Bridle
Posted by Nikki K. in the UK. on 24th May 2011
Thank you for your excellent service, I received my rope bridle on Tuesday 17.5.11 and Hannah my warmblood mare loves it. I took her round the village pass the workmen building a new wall around the church with lots of machinery and noise, village trafic including a white van on a sharp corner that came a bit too close but she managed with a few strides of jog and then came back to walk. When we got back to the yard I just changed the reins to the head collar setting and tied her up outside her stable ready to take her saddle off.
Fantastic design love it to bits.
Kind regards.

VERY EFFECTIVE!
Posted by Grace on 26th Dec 2010
I found your LightRider Rope Naturals the best because they are so effective on my 3 horses. 1 of my horses is a 2yo filly who I use the Natural on for groundwork. Then there's my goey pony mare who I can control very easily with the Natural! And my QH gelding who is very responsive in the Natural! I also have an Arabian mare who will be re-trained Bitless with your LR Natural! :) I love it and so do ALL my horses! Thankyou.

Bracing solved - much clearer
Posted by Rikki from U. K. on 5th Jul 2010
Just to let you know how I am getting on with your rope light rider bitless bridle. It is great and I am very pleased with it. I was already riding my icelandic horse in a bitless cross under type bridle, which was fine for riding out on tracks and she seemed to like it, however when it came to tight turns or trying to get rein and feet coordination, she was bracing against the pull on the rein. I was not able to get a feel - it was a case of hold until she gave then release.
The same when turning back to shut a gate (we have lots ) - a complete brace. However with yours it is a lot clearer for her so I just lift the rein and she moves over. Also I thought it is very good for riding out with one rein - just clip lead rope on and leave two reins on if you want. Wonderful. Thanks.

Total control and 100% safe
Posted by Julie S. Victoria. on 5th Jul 2010
Kate was in one of her 'do everything at 100 miles an hour moods'- pulling, rushing and wanting to get home and as you can see she is a big strong girl. Well the bridle didn't miss a beat, I had total control and felt 100% safe. Thank you so much for letting me try it out, I am really impressed with it.

Delivers a clearer, more direct message
Posted by Tara N. Tasmania. on 5th Jul 2010
“I am impressed with the bridles. I have to admit that when I first heard of them I thought they were just another version of the “bigger bit” theory, however I now think that they are a very good alternative to a natural hackamore.
I have had good feedback from the whole family, husband, 12 & 14yo boys as to how they like them.
My personal opinion is that they are very good for novice riders and for using on green horses.
This is because I have noticed that with natural hackamores novice riders can tend to twist the horses head when asking for lateral flexion. The light rider bridle seems to deliver a much clearer and more direct message when using it to convey lateral messages to your horse. It is also ideally suited to endurance riders as it can still give you a lead rope if you need it.
All round the horses and humans all appreciated their new bridles. Thanks,"

Happy Horses
Posted by Kim R. Tasmania on 5th Jul 2010
"I purchased two bitless rope bridles approximately two years from you and have found them to be wonderful. I use one for my endurance horse and one on my young horse, both horses round beautifully when asked and with the slightest of aids. I have had quite a few comments from people in regards to how happy my horses seem, and I believe that apart from being devoted to them, a lot has to do with not putting a bit in their sensitive mouths.
Thank you for my marvellous bitless bridles."
