How to set up bit alliances?

You need to add bit keepers to your Pelham or Pessoa and are a bit lost on how to do it?

Indeed, there are four options for attaching your reins to your bit.

1. On the largest ring at the top (no leverage effect, effect comparable to a simple bit)
2. On the lower ring (very significant leverage effect)
3. Use two pairs of reins
4. On both rings, meaning you need to add a piece of leather called a keeper that allows for a medium action.

The tutorial Ohlala explains in a few very simple steps how to add them:

1. Check that your bit is facing the right way, with the loops of the keepers directed outward on both sides to avoid hurting your horse.
2. Open the loops on each side of the keeper
3. Attach one end of the keeper to the largest ring
4. Attach the second end to the lower ring
5. Attach your reins to the loop formed by the keeper
6. Attach your browband to the highest ring (where the curb chain is positioned)
7. Repeat the operation on the other side
