Simply attach it to the cheek pieces of your own bridle instead of a bit (fits up to 1" cheek straps), and you have a Bitless bridle at an affordable price.

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 90% of the pressure is on top of the nose.

 

Materials: Comes in Regular or Deluxe Beta Biothane, and Regular leather with stainless steel or brass fittings. More info on the difference between Deluxe and Regular Beta biothane here. 

Check this measurement chart to ensure the right choice for your horse.

I recommend you use scissor rein clips for easy change over to the leading ring which enables groundwork/leading/lunging, or buy LightRider reins with clips included to have the correctly weighted reins designed for this bridle.

  1. Bitless Noseband changed my horse's attitude

    Posted by Dorothe Doyle on 5th Aug 2011

    I acquired Cooper, my 13 year old QH through a rescue and didn't know what kind of riding he was trained at. We tried western and english, but no matter what kind of bit I used, he would bob his head or shake it from side to side, constantly fighting the bit. Somebody suggested a bitless bridle and I started to look into it. I came across your company and the noseband made great sense to me, as I didn't want to buy another bridle and that way I could keep the one I already had.
    From the moment I put the new bitless noseband on, he was a different horse. He is easy to maneuver now, even jumps over hurdles. No more head shaking and refusing to move forward.
    The quality of the leather is excellent, I will purchase a new bridle for my other horse also.


  2. Noseband open ride

    Posted by Jenny on 16th May 2011

    I rode out with my new noseband on my 3yr green horse which I started in a halter. He was fantastic, it was a 10km open hills ride with 14 other horses and he was calm,controlable and I was very proud of him as the older horsed played up (in bits). He responded well to HQ yields but backing was not as good as in the yards (we will work on it).


  3. WOW!

    Posted by Grace(NSW) on 25th Feb 2011

    So effective! The LightRider Noseband makes my horses sooo soft! They are incredibly responsive in it and it doesn't rub them one bit! It is also VERY easy to clean, and comes up brand new with just a wipe-over! :) I like to use it for Training and All-Rounder! Ridden or not, it's the perfect WELL PRICED Bitless Bridle! :)


  4. A dream ride

    Posted by Susan K. on 28th Oct 2010

    The first time I rode Silverbell with the bitless there was not a problem. She is a lot calmer doesn’t shy like before and no chewing of the bit, which used to bother me knowing that it must be extremely unpleasant, nor shaking of her head.

    Went for a 10 klm ride again today, and she was a dream.


  5. I love the Bitless Noseband - and more importantly so does my Arab mare!!!

    Posted by Judy W on 21st Sep 2010

    Firstly I was impressed with the quality. I read the instructions (something i don't often do) and took the time to make sure it fitted perfectly. The result was a great looking, well fitting bridle that my sensitive mare listens and responds to. I had previously tried the rope bitless bridle which i liked initially but i found it slipped around too much on my mare (perhaps it was too big?) The concept was good so i bought the noseband and we love it! The better fit allows me much softer control and i am very happy as she has finally relaxed - and so have i!


  6. Thrilled

    Posted by Ingrid Kenna on 12th Jul 2010

    I just wanted to say how thrilled I am with my bitless bridle. Pippin is a 7y.o anglo gelding who I have owned since a yearling. He was trained under saddle initially with a halter and only then had the bit and bridle introduced by a proffessional trainer who I felt did a fantastic job. I rode him in a conventional snaffle but occassionally due to circimstance i.e going for a trail ride at the beach and forgetting to pack my bridle, would end up in a halter and always found him super responsive.

    I purchased your bitless noseband and fitted it to my existing bridle. Wow. Pippin is just as responsive if not more so, will work in a collected frame doing flatwork and is very "controllable" on trail, road, and in company. You have given us a wonderful new dimension to our partnership and we are both thrilled.
    Thankyou for a wonderful product.


  7. Whole New World has opened up!

    Posted by Eva T. Vic. on 5th Jul 2010

    I really love the bitless noseband. It fitted easily and well on my existing bridle and with the clips I ordered as well I could attach my soft leather reins.
    My instructor, who teaches classical riding (NO pulling the head of the horse behind the vertical etc ...!! ) also thinks it is great.
    What I really like about bitless riding is that poll flexion cannot be forced (maybe unless one really pulled on the reins hard !? ) and that the horse’s head positions naturally from the poll as here with Bondi going long, low and relaxed while I am concentrating on my seat. It is like a whole new world has opened up to me! Thanks so much again for the nose band.


  8. Top quality product

    Posted by Belinda Taylor on 16th Jun 2010

    The lightrider noseband is fantastic. I had an expensive show bridle that I wanted to convert to bitless. The noseband fitted well and blended in with my existing bridle. I'm very happy with the quality and performance
