They slide easily giving a fast rein ‘release’ to reward your horse instantly.
One-piece reins allow for leading with the bridle and doing groundwork before riding or for tying (use a breakaway so your bridle doesn’t break).
- Easy Un-clipping allows leading/groundwork or remove them easily for tying up with a lead rope, as reins are not suitable for tying a horse.
- The clips are lightweight so there is a breaking point. If a horse steps on the rein it’s better to break a clip than the bridle or your horse!
- Designed to be light enough for good release (< 300g) to allow correct release on the LightRider bitless bridle/noseband chinstrap.
- Easy to remove or replace the clips with looped rein ends.
Choose from brass or stainless-steel (rust-free) swivel rein clips to match your bridle hardware.

These reins are just what I was looking for. They are very comfortable and the length is good too. I really like the colours.

I have two pairs of these reins. They are light but heavy enough you feel them and they drape nicely without swinging around
They are so soft and the perfect thickness.
I love the clips so you can easily take them off and use them as a leadrope on long trail rides

These reins are soft and the clips are light so there is very little additional weight on the horses head, what I especially like about them is the length. The extra length makes them ideal for in hand work ,I am able to work my horses from the shoulder with a gentle touch on and elasticity in the reins.

Lovely reins. Really light they are so nice to hold and the clips are nice and easy to use. They look terrific too. Thank you for such a great pair of reins.

love the reins – rope is great quality, good weight without being too thick. Easy to unclip and use as a lead-rope when necessary, eg grazing while out trail riding. Brown/gold colour perfect for palomino.

My first reins came with my light rider bridle a few years ago. They are still in excellent shape. They wash up great. Have ridden many sweaty miles with them. I love these reins so much I ordered another pair for my other horse. Tried to find something comparable in the USA and just couldn’t. Excellent product.

I like these reins, I have had trouble with the clips breaking before, especially when the kids use them as a lead rope and clunk the clip on a pole or something, so I have a couple of spare ones. But good length and easy to attach, I have several of these and they are great, can also color-coordinate to a degree (more colours would be wonderful) which makes organising tack with 5 kids (& plenty of visitors) easier.

Beautiful reins in glossy dark brown with gold clips.
My preference is thicker reins

These are wonderful, comfortable in the hands, they don’t snag in my horse’s long mane and while I can leave them loose to let him snatch up some nice forest grass on the ride, their suppleness means I can quickly draw them up to reassure him if he spooks at a deer. (regular situation- graze/deer/spook!)

Love this! Been riding for many years but never tried a bitless until now. Was very impressed how easily the horse made the transition from bit to bitless. She is still very responsive and easy to manage. And so much happier, especially as she has young boys on her still learning to ride who can be a bit heavy on the reins. Very happy with this product, thank you.

Thanks Natural Horse World – the rope reins are awesome! Really nice to hold and not to heavy either, which is good :). I really recommend this product!

I love the reins as they do give a fast rein release. They are soft, light and very nice to ride in .
I have the swivel clip on them as I do ground work before hand.
Great rein worth buying.
I am a trail rider.

The polyrope reins have a nice feel – silky smooth and light. They are long enough that I can sit upright whilst Murphy (16.3hh warmblood/cob) grazes or drinks. The clips work well and are also light. Our 11′ Parelli finesse reins are much heavier and weigh 550 grams compared with the Lightrider reins weighing less than 300 grams. I recommend this product.

excellent feel of the reins. I am using them as lead for the soft rope halter – excellent, feel safe & secure, and just ‘right’ weight.

Love these reins, comfortable to use allowing ease of release as reward for your horse’s good efforts. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

The "black & gold" rope reins look great with my black stockhorse style Lightrider bridle and are a good length for loose reined trail riding (I got the full size for my 15.3hh horse). They have a very nice feel.

Bought reins for my daughter & myself, great can swap between bridles, affordable price, nice & light for us both, clips great for small hands very happy with purchase.

The LightRider Rope Reins are very soft! When I go on 2hr Trail Rides, the reins are very comfortable! They are nice and grippy and don’t rub my hands at all! Also, my horse seems to be lighter in them! I love the quality of them! Very nice!! 🙂

Prefer these reins for my hackamore, as I don’t like all the ropes flapping around the head and neck area. They are also much lighter than most rope reins.
Wish they came in colours to match halters, as the black and brown, are easy to lose.
