Showman Long S Shank Bit w/ Fixed Port Tongue Relief

The Long S cheek delivers a smooth, rolling signal with progressive leverage—clean pickup, clear release, and a balanced feel in the hand. This design helps with rate, lift, and straightness while keeping the signal easy to read without getting heavy.

The fixed port mouthpiece provides tongue relief with a stable, centered feel. At 1 ¾" tall and 1" wide, it clears the tongue without crowding the palate and maintains even bar contact. The fixed construction keeps the mouthpiece quiet with less lateral play, making it an excellent choice for finished horses that go best with consistent pressure and riders refining lift, rate, and balance.

Each Showman® bit is forged and finished by hand with solid welds and balanced leverage for professional use.
