The Rambo® Micklem Original Multibridle can be used as a bitted bridle, a bit-free bridle, a lunge caveson and even as a halter with just a few small adjustments. With medium bitless strap only.
How to Attach a Nameplate to a Halter, Bridle, Martingale or Breastplate
Required Tools: will need a leather hole punch, hammer and pencil.
Steps: 1. Unwrap your nameplate and identify the rivets as having two posts and two caps. 2. Center the plate where you would like it ; mark its holes with pencil. 3. Use the hole punch centered on the pencil marks. A good quality hole punch with appropriate pressure applied should be able to penetrate even thick leather halters. 4. Push the rivet posts through the back of the tack so the posts are pointed toward you. 5. Put the nameplate on rivet posts. 6. Place rivet caps onto the posts, and tap the caps with a hammer.
Note: If you do not feel comfortable installing your own nameplate, we are happy to help. Bring your plate and tack into your local Dover Saddlery store for assistance. Your local leather repair professional or cobbler may also be able to assist you.
For a properly fitted bridle, a caveson noseband should sit just below the horse's cheekbones ?a?o?o?CU???o?e??o generally no more than the width of 2 fingers from the bottom of the cheekbone to the top of the noseband (this does not apply to drop or figure 8 nosebands). Figure 8 nosebands should sit above the bottom of the cheek bone only if they have a ring that allows movement connecting the noseband to the cheek piece. The browband should never be gaping or flopping. Click Here for more information and examples.
Properly adjusted cheek pieces will cause the bit to create two gentle wrinkles at the corner of the mouth on each side. Cheek piece buckles should generally be at the level of a horse's eye, and on a bridle that fits a horse's head very well, all buckles will generally be at the same level as each other. These cheek piece guidelines are just a suggestion, as finding a perfect fit on all horses is near impossible. Multiple holes are given on cheek pieces to allow for vast adjustment. Keep in mind that the proper position of the bit is a priority over buckle placement. Click Here for more information and examples.
Some horses can be difficult to fit in a stock size bridle. For this reason, additional bridle pieces can be bought in a variety of sizes and it is never a problem to mix and match sizes of individual pieces to get the proper fit.
For a bridle size chart, please refer to the "Size Guide" link that appears on the product page.
Properly caring for your bridle and reins supports maximum performance, longevity your horse's comfort.
After every ride, you'll want to wipe any grime, sweat, saliva and ring dust from your bridle and reins and use either traditional glycerin soap and water or a specially formulated leather cleanser.
Pay particular attention to cleaning areas of your bridle that are typically under pressure during riding and exposed to saliva, such as the ends of cheek pieces and reins where they come in contact with bit rings.
For a traditional and economical method, glycerin soap, a small bucket and a sponge or cloth works great. Barely moisten the sponge with cool water. Unfasten hook stud closures and buckles to remove debris caught by the hardware and to smooth creases in your leather.
After washing, and when the leather feels smooth and clean, rub a nearly dry sponge or rag against the glycerin soap bar. Apply a thin layer of glycerin soap (no suds during this step) to your leather to seal its pores and keep it soft, but not sticky.
Newer methods of cleaning your bridle involve convenient and easy-to-use tack cleaning and conditioning products. Almost every tack manufacturer has a recommendation or product preference for cleaning and conditioning its products, and some manufacturers produce their own. Always follow manufacturer's guidelines when considering commercial leather cleaners and conditioners.
One-step leather cleaners also condition your leather as you wipe away grime. Two-step cleaners usually advise following cleansing with a conditioner that will soften and protect the leather.

The Rambo® Micklem® Original Multibridle combines several pieces of equipment into one. With a few small adjustments, it can easily be adapted to the training requirements of most horses and riders.
The Micklem Multibridle design is guided by the shape of the horse’s skull rather than the outward appearance of the horse’s head. Straps are positioned to hold the bridle in a comfortable position, avoiding fragile facial bones, facial nerves, protruding upper jaw and molars. The design also reduces shifting.
Comfort features include a padded single crownpiece and straps that stay put and reduce pressure points. Reins are sold separately.
Note: In the United States, the Micklem Multiridle includes the medium bitless strap only. The long bitless strap shown in other advertisements and videos is not available for sale in the U.S. or from Dover Saddlery. The long bitless strap will not be included with your Micklem Multibridle.
