ABOUT REINSMAN

Founded in 1993 as an American bit company, Reinsman creates handmade bits to take your horse from green to finished. We expanded to saddle pads that are over-engineered to protect or correct any conformation issue, and now offer our newest horse wear options like APEX sport boots, winter blankets, and fly defense. From our accessories to our bits and pads, we’ve taken a second, third, and fourth look, all while thinking about how we will bring the best quality, value, and design to our products.

BITS

Reinsman bits are crafted with precision and expertise, designed to optimize communication and comfort between horse and rider. Known for their exceptional quality and thoughtful design, Reinsman bits are made from high-grade materials that ensure durability and reliability. Each bit is engineered to provide clear signals while promoting a gentle and responsive connection with the horse's mouth. Whether used for training, competition, or everyday riding, Reinsman bits offer a range of styles and mouthpiece options to suit different preferences and disciplines.

STAGE A & STAGE B

• Stage A - Direct Reining: Designed for young or green horses and riders learning basic cues. Stage A bits typically feature gentle mouthpieces like smooth snaffles or mild curbs, focusing on clear communication and establishing a foundation of direct rein control.
• Stage B - Transition Bits: Intended for horses progressing beyond basic training. Stage B bits offer additional features such as slight tongue relief, ported mouthpieces, or moderate leverage options. These bits aid in refining responsiveness and preparing horses for more nuanced cues.

STAGE C & STAGE D

• Stage C - Neck Reining: Geared towards horses trained in neck reining and performing at intermediate levels. Stage C bits often include ported or correctional mouthpieces, offering precise communication and moderate to significant leverage for advanced maneuvers and responsiveness.
• Stage D - Advanced Neck Reining: Tailored for elite-level horses proficient in neck reining. Stage D bits feature intricate designs like swivel mouthpieces, advanced porting, or innovative materials for refined control and subtle communication during high-level performances.

STAGE E & HACKAMORES

• Stage E - Correction: Specialized bits for horses requiring corrective aids or fine-tuning of cues. Stage E bits often incorporate correctional mouthpieces with high ports, swiveling elements, or varying shank lengths to address specific training needs and promote optimal responsiveness.
• Hackamores: Ideal for horses that prefer or require bitless options. Reinsman hackamores are crafted with quality materials and ergonomic designs to provide effective control and communication through leverage, nose pressure, or a combination of both. They offer versatility for sensitive horses or those with mouth-related issues.
