U. S. Port Bits

Abetta U.S. Port Bits

The U. S. port is a throw back to the original U.S. Army bit. The port is generally as wide as it is tall. The tall port works off the palate and provides even more pressure when used with a loose curb. While it packs well it will produce some "whoa" power. Ample tongue relief makes this a good bit for horses with tongue damage.
