They looks very similar other than the complete ring on the II. (image.jpg) (image.jpg) Attachments ---------------- image.jpg (35KB - 334 downloads) image.jpg (26KB - 272 downloads)

The biggest difference between the 2 that you have pictured is, of course, the mouthpiece. I would think you would get a smoother slide with the 2nd one. Running Roan has the 2 on sale, if I'm not mistaken. Here you go.. http://www.runningroantack.com/sale.html Edited by Nevertooold 2013-12-26 12:50 PM

What feels different about them to you? I love my simplicity I... Why would you grab your II to ride in instead?

Regular Posts: 68 Location: oklahoma	The simplicity2 and simplicity have a different feel especially if you add a curb whether it be leather or chain etc. The simplicity has a tendency to get one on the front end a little bit and it also travel on the gag quicker for a faster response. The simplicity 2 gives the horse a little more time to respond before it travels all the way up and it has a better balance. Both can be ridden with or without a curb of your choice. I like the simplicity without a curb and simplicity 2 with a curb. I like the smooth snaffle and chain in the simplicity. The chain snaffle and 3 piece with the dogbone in the simplicity 2 best. These are only my opinions others my think different. Oops forgot to say why I would switch. If the horse is feeling a little heavy in front end usually is why I switch off. I love them all so I switch up till I find the one that makes the horse the happiest and feels the best to me. Edited by dr pepper queen 2013-12-26 8:34 PM
