Beta headstalls are made of a synthetic material that combines the strength of nylon with the easy care of vinyl. Beta is particularly popular with trail and endurance riders, since the material requires no maintenance and can be subjected to virtually any conditions without being affected. Available in black, brown and chestnut. Draft size available in black only.
Beta reins are made of the same material as our Beta bridles, and buckle onto the bridle at the ends of the crossover straps.

Although we only display 1 rein, the price is for a PAIR of reins.
