This size chart is a guideline. Measurements are supplied by PS of Sweden.
- ✓ Selectable Cradles™ for a softer, more flexible connection between the bit and the bridle
- ✓ Elastic cradles let the bit move slightly, helping to reduce static pressure on the teeth and jaw
- ✓ Cradles detach easily when a more classic contact is preferred
- ✓ Connected directly to the noseband for an integrated Nirak setup
The PS of Sweden Nirak Cheekpieces are equipped with Selectable Cradles™, creating a softer and more flexible connection between the bit and the bridle. The elastic cradles allow the bit to move slightly, helping to reduce static pressure on the horse's teeth and jaw and support a more comfortable contact.
On the Nirak bridle, the cheekpieces are connected directly to the noseband, creating an integrated setup. The selectable function allows the cradles to be easily detached, making it possible to remove them when a more classic contact is preferred, for example when entering the dressage arena.
The cheekpieces are developed specifically for the Nirak bridle and are lighter in colour than cheekpieces made for classic bridles.
