The MD tico is a complete bitless leather hackamore bridle with clip reins. Anatomically shaped behind the ears, softly padded and stable on the head thanks to the chin clip strap. Widely adjustable and available in sizes pony, cob, full and extra full.
The hackamore gives a slight leverage effect which distributes the pressure over the nose, chin and behind the ears. You can also use this one as a sidepull bridle by clipping the reins on a different place on the star wheel.
