The 2.5 ring eggbutt is a milder version of a 3 ring (pessoa) bit. Leverage can be created with this jaw piece. The lower the reins are placed, the tougher the bit becomes. An ideal bit for horses that are very strong on the course, grasp the bit or walk through the hand. The eggbutt rings cannot move loose and therefore the help of the hand works more directly.
This mouthpiece is a rod with a medium port. The tongue arch provides more tongue freedom so that there is no pressure on the tongue but is distributed over the layers. This makes the bit ideal for horses with a sensitive tongue or horses that stick out the tongue. This bit is not suitable for an inexperienced rider.

My mare seems much happier with more room for her tongue. She already loved the Inno Sense bits for her sensitive mouth. Glad I ordered this bit and look forward to having in my arsenal!
