When he does drop down, he feels good, but I think his balance is so erratic he just can't keep the frame and feel secure. <BR/><BR/>So far the KK three piece bit with the cheek pieces (fulmer) is fine. He just needs to gain the confidence of carrying me and himself. <BR/><BR/>If I were to do a lot of lining, I might have to go to a softer bit as he would overbend very easily.<BR/><BR/>I teach High School.
