The Happy Tongue Forward Swivel is a solid mouthpiece and will not create a squeeze on the bars. The Happy Tongue Straight is available in Sweet Iron. The Sweet Iron material was chosen as a metal option as it oxidizes. Oxidization encourages salivation and acceptance of the mouthpiece. The solid, Happy Tongue Straight, has no movement. The 4 available ports have been scaled according to each width. This ensures accurate fitting over the bars and eliminates the rocking movement which occurs when the port is too wide.
