Bit Converter Roundings for Pelhams

Bit Converter is a leather strap that connects from the curb to snaffle rings on a pelham bit, to allow a rider use s single set of reins. Shires make their converters with top quality leather and with hook stud fastenings. Bit converters are sometimes also known in some places as ’roundings’ or ‘pelham roundings’. They change Pelham bits from two-rein bits to one-rein bits.

Why should you use a Bit Converter?

A bit converter or roundings are typically used for beginners or simple riding. This is because when you have a converter those using a Pelham bit do not have to maneuver or keep track of two different sets of reins. The issue with the roundings for pelham bits is that with them, the effect on the mouth is neither clearly curb nor snaffle. For this reason, bit converters are commonly used by children while being instructed. Riders above the beginner level should learn to use double reins correctly or use a different bit.
