Fager bits - Dylan - Sweet iron - Fixed ring

Are you looking for a bit that offers a stable yet gentle feel for a sensitive or easily overreactive horse? Fager Dylan is specially designed for horses that:

✔ Get easily nervous in the mouth but feel too stiff with locking or straight bits.
✔ Open their mouth, pull on the reins, or get behind/under the bit.
✔ Need encouragement to seek contact and maintain a consistent connection.
✔ Overreact to rein aids and require softer pressure distribution.
✔ Are unstable in the contact and easily become either too light or too heavy in the hand.

Innovative design combined with a perfect fit

🔹 Double-jointed sweet iron bit with a sweet-tasting, relaxing coating.
🔹 Horizontal joints provide even and soft pressure on the tongue and palate – gentler than vertical joints.
🔹 Ideal for horses with low palates, as the joints do not press on the palate or irritate the most sensitive parts of the mouth.
🔹 Helps the horse accept and hold the bit more stably in the mouth, encouraging consistent and confident contact.

Why is sweet iron material good for a sensitive horse?

Sweet Iron is a coating added over stainless steel, which can be blue or grey. Its purpose is to:

✔ Cover the metallic taste of stainless steel, making the bit more pleasant for the horse.
✔ Provide a sweet taste, which encourages the horse to seek contact and maintain a consistent connection with the rider's hand.

Why choose Fager Dylan?

✅ Extremely gentle and comfortable for sensitive horses – especially those that do not accept three-piece bits with vertical joints.
✅ Encourages the horse to seek consistent contact and maintain connection – reduces instability and oral restlessness.
✅ Optimal fit and pressure distribution – particularly suitable for horses with low palates.
✅ Sweet Iron material enhances comfort and acceptance – the sweet taste helps the horse relax and accept the bit naturally.
