Pelhams and Kimblewicks Horse Bits

A pelham bit has elements of both a curb bit and a snaffle bit. In this respect a pelham functions similar to a double bridle, and like a double bridle it normally has double reins: a set of curb reins and a set of snaffle reins or simply ride off one rein using a leather pelham rounding.
