Every horse person knows: Bits are a critical piece of equipment for your horse, they can make or break a good riding experience, but finding and fitting the right bit can be a daunting or frustrating task. Choose wrongly and you have another expensive piece of tack that you don't like to use. Most riders can’t afford to purchase a new bit each week in an ongoing effort to find what makes their horses happy.

To assist our customers Chaballo and HS Sprenger are offering a method to “test-drive” various Sprenger Equine products.

The Sprenger Test Center offers a selection of popular Sprenger products that can be hired for a fee and tried out at home without a commitment to purchase if it ends up not being the right match.

 

This option gives Chaballo customers the opportunity to use a Sprenger bit or stirrups on a trial basis first. We believe it helps riders make the best possible choice for their horse in the long run.

Please note: 

  • Trial period: maximum of 14 days
  • Limit of 2 test bits / stirrups per 14-day trial period
  • Test center products are not available for purchase, but must be returned

If you decide to make the purchase we ask you to send the test product back to us in exchange for a new, unused product. 

Contact us on (08) 8388 4812 or service@chaballo.com.au for further details and to arrange for a trial.

 


Products available in the Sprenger Test Center include: 

STIRRUPS: 

SYSTEM 4 STIRRUPS

 

The advantages of the Sprenger jointed stirrups System 4:

  • Pivoting into 4 directions simultaneously
  • Softens the impact on cartilage and ligaments
  • The heel is always in the correct low position
  • Superb strength
  • Great comfort

 

FLEXCITE STIRRUPS
The Flexcite stirrup design ensures a more comfortable leg position, the changed weight ratio on these stirrups results in enhanced balance and greater comfort for the rider. The widened tread is made out of two types of rubber properties which aids the shock absorbing properties as well as improving grip. 
The internationally renowned System 4 technology enables the stirrup to pivot in 4 directions which minimises the impact on the rider‘s cartilage and ligaments without creating an unstable feeling whilst riding. The stirrup design provides easy “pick up“ upon mounting as they require very little effort on the rider’s part – a simple touch of the foot to the stirrup and it gently folds onto the rider’s foot.
