Happy Mouth Wire Mouth Bits

Published April 13, 2016 · Recall initiated: May 31, 2012

What's the hazard

The steel braided wire in the mouthpiece that connects the bit on either side of the horse's cheeks can become frayed, rusted or worn, which can cause the bit to break. If this happens, the rider can lose control and fall from the horse.

What to do

Consumers should immediately stop using these bits and return them to the retailer where purchased or return the bits directly to English Riding Supply for a refund.
