Always verify your bit has proper attachment points before purchasing. The 5\/8 inch width is standard for most western horses. If unsure, consult your saddle maker or bit fitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I care for the chestnut leather on this curb chain?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClean with mild soap and water after each ride, especially after heavy sweating.
