Trust Inno Sense 2,5 ring mullen hard-20

Inno Sense

Trust’s Inno Sense bits are the ideal choice for young or sensitive horses. Made from FDA-approved, non-toxic plastic without plasticisers, they offer a soft and comfortable alternative to traditional metal mouthpieces. Many horses accept the bit quickly and follow the rider’s hand with ease.

Inno Sense mouthpieces are available in two thicknesses — indicated in the product name by number. The 15 mm version is the slim fit design—ideal for horses with smaller mouths or when used in a double bridle combination. The 20 mm version is our standard thickness and suits a wide range of horses.

Proper placement on the bars—the toothless part of the jaw—prevents contact with teeth or molars. However, damage from biting can occur in horses with dental issues or those that lift the bit with their tongue. While TRUST Equestrian guarantees the quality and workmanship of Inno Sense bits, damage caused by biting is not covered under warranty.

Every horse is different, and selecting the right bit plays a key role in comfort, communication, and performance. A properly fitted bit prevents pressure points, slipping, and discomfort—helping your horse stay soft, responsive, and confident in the contact.

2.5 Ring

The 2.5 ring cheekpiece offers a milder alternative to the 3-ring (Pessoa) cheekpiece. This design allows for a leverage effect, which increases as the reins are lowered, enhancing control. The pressure is focused on the poll, just behind the ears, giving a clear and direct influence during riding. It’s important to understand that too much pressure on the poll can cause discomfort or harm to a horse, so this bit should be used with care and a clear understanding of its impact.

Mullen

The Mullen mouthpiece is a straight, slightly forward-curved bar that does not bend. Made from non-toxic, elastic synthetic material (FDA approved and free of plasticizers), it offers a firm yet soft feel in the mouth. Unlike the Flexi Soft, the Mullen provides steady, even pressure across the tongue. This makes it a comfortable choice for sensitive horses, while still offering reliable control.
