The best looking bitless bridle - looks like a classy traditional bridle.

  • Made from synthetic leather-look 'Beta Biothane' in regular or deluxe, and quality regular or english leather. More info on the differences here.
  • Solid brass or stainless steel fittings, and extra padding on the headpiece.
  • Maximum comfort around the poll/brow as they can rotate around the ring. 

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 around. The chinstrap becomes snug and does not over-tighten so this bridle is usually well accepted by sensitive horses.

Features:

  • Padded noseband, headpiece and brow band offers more comfort for your horse
  • Soft webbing adjustable chinstrap that releases for comfort and reward.
  • The noseband sits higher than most bitless bridles and does not need to be tight, allowing the horse to eat and drink.
  • Designed for leading your horse too, or the lead ring and strap can be removed for ridden show classes. Also great for showing in led classes without a bit.

Colours: Black or brown in Regular or Deluxe Beta Biothane and Regular or English leather.

Sizes: 

Cob usually (fits 13.2hh-14.3hh/132cm to 152cm).

Full usually (fits 15hh-16.2hh/152cm to 173cm).

Warmblood/draft usually (fits solid 17hh-18hh/164cm to 183cm) or smaller draft breeds.

Check the measurement chart here to ensure the right size 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 maximum chinstrap release.

  1. Totally love the Light Rider Bridle-Stockhorse

    Posted by Leigh Thorpe, Traralgon on 27th Sep 2010

    My little Arab is totally loving his new bitless bridle. He responded almost straight away when I first used it on him. So light and easy in the hands. Easy to put on and take off and looks awesome on him. Very happy with my purchase. Also bought the rope Light rider reins and they are beautiful and soft in your hands. Love that you can use this bridle to lead with as well. Very happy with my purchase.


  2. Better conversation Bitless

    Posted by Vanessa and Echo, Tasmania. on 12th Jul 2010

    The light rider bitless bridle has given me the opportunity to have a real conversation while riding my horse, due to the absence of pain, which otherwise is caused by a bit. When a bitted bridle is put on my horse he becomes stressed and tense. Even before I place the bit in his mouth his whole body tenses and his head goes up.
    Now using the LightRider bitless bridle he lowers his head and waits for me to slip it on. He is also not afraid of being accidentally jabbed in the mouth and with his new barefoot treeless saddle the combination is beautiful. He is more willing to tune into me and concentrate on what I am asking.

    The LightRider bitless bridle also looks like a normal bridle which I love. Thanks Cynthia for a wonderful product.


  3. Most comfortable bridle

    Posted by Kelly C. Vic. on 5th Jul 2010

    The Stockhorse bridle is fabulous thanks. I have ridden my horse 'Huckleberry' in a crossunder style bridle as well as a riding halter bridle, and yours would appear so far to be the most comfortable one from the horse's perspective. My horse usually has impeccable manners when on his own, however when with a group of 'mates' he gets understandably excited, and sometimes I have to apply more pressure than I would normally like, in order to get him to listen.
    So far so good. Yours looks lovely and fits him well. Thanks again.


  4. I Like the LightRider Best

    Posted by Kath in Victoria on 10th Jun 2010

    "Just to let you know that I have fitted the Stockhorse Bitless Bridle and it looks great!!! It looks and even smells like leather! I had a look at one of your bridles at a clinic back in January. Since then, I've been doing some research and liked yours the best.

    I put the bridle on Wunjo at liberty.....at first I think he was expecting a bit from the way I put it over his ears (we've only been using a halter for the last 2 years), but once on he relaxed and we did a very small bit of ground work with excellent results. We'll be taking however long it takes before I'm in the saddle with it, but once there, I'll have more feedback for you.

    I'm looking forward to experiencing a ride with the new bridle. Thanks so much for taking the time to figure something out to help our horses have a better life with humans and for making it available to anyone who wants to try it out!!! "
