Mullen Stainless Steel Pelham

Pelhams are a good way of riding with two reins but only having to have one bit in the horse's mouth. It i s crucial with any curb bit to set the curb chain correctly. You twist the curb so that it sits flat, then lay it across the back of the jaw and pick up the bottom rein, gently pull it so that you get the angle right as if it were in the rider's hand. The cheek of the bit should only go to 45 degrees and then the chain should be snuggly tucked into the jaw, stopping the cheek moving any further over. If the chain is too loose you spoil the balance of the bit. Apply too much downward mouth

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as EMITA POLO LIMITED, number 06257511. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
