Location: on the fine line between insanity and geniusness | I have several of the Kathy James versions and LOVE THEM!!! I've also ridden in the Hollis and can promise you they have nothing close to the same feel. Kathy's has a much quicker reaction time. It allows the fastest grab and release of pressure of any gag like bit that I've used. I also bought the BP version of this bit but it didn't feel very balanced to me. The bit itself is too light. Kathy is fantastic to work with as well! |

Shoot! I sold one on FB bit auction a few months ago that was exactly like that. Might be a good place for you to keep your eyes on for one. |

Or... are you talking about the Troy Flaharty bit that everyone and their mother is using now? Troy is affectionately calling it The Duke, since Latricia has been using and ordered so many.
Yea I have the kathy James but everyone and their mother went and bought one from Troy. Are they really any different though....other than craftsmanship of course? |

| How does this differ from other gag bits? Isn't the mouthpiece just sliding in the same side as other gags?

Does anyone know what happened to Troy's website? It used to be http://www.flahartybitsandspurs.com/, but that site doesn't work anymore... |

He has a FB page and I sent a message but never got any response from him. Someone told me you have to call his wife and also that he wasn't making the "Duke" bit in the lesser expensive plain model anymore you have to purchase a custom one. |
