About this item
Highlights
- Unrivaled Comfort & Acceptance: The unique MB 02 Comfort Snaffle Wide Barrel mouthpiece features a gentle, curved design. This thoughtful construction distributes pressure evenly across the tongue and bars, eliminating pinching and providing ample room for your horse's tongue. The result? Less resistance and a greater willingness to accept the bit.
- Natural Salivation & Relaxation: Crafted from sweet iron with a strategically placed copper inlay, this mouthpiece naturally encourages salivation. This makes the bit more palatable, promotes a relaxed jaw, and ultimately leads to smoother, more enjoyable training sessions.
- Precise Communication with ISM: Experience the power of Independent Side Movement (ISM). This Myler innovation allows each side of the bit to move independently, empowering you to give incredibly precise lateral aids. Guide your horse with subtle cues – for example, lifting one shoulder – without affecting the opposite side of their mouth.
- Versatile & Stable Rein Action: The Western Dee cheekpiece, complete with "hooks," offers multiple rein attachment options. This allows for both direct and indirect rein action, giving you flexibility in your communication. These hooks also expertly stabilize the bit in your horse's mouth and on the bridle, ensuring perfect positioning without adding any unwanted leverage.
- Ideal for Developing Horses: As a Myler Bitting System Level 1 bit, the MB 02 is an excellent choice for horses just beginning their training journey, those learning basic aids, or sensitive horses who need to comfortably accept the bit. It's particularly effective for horses with fleshy tongues or those that resist other types of bits due to discomfort.

Its curved shape provides crucial tongue relief and prevents pinching of the lips and bars, encouraging your horse to swallow more freely. The "wide barrel" in the center distributes pressure kindly across the tongue, while also facilitating Independent Side Movement (ISM). Made from sweet iron with a copper inlay, it promotes natural salivation for a softer, more accepting mouth. This design focuses on teaching developing horses to "give" to the bit, making it ideal for those just starting their training journey.How do the "hooks" on the Western Dee cheekpiece enhance communication and bit stability?The "hooks" on the Myler Western Dee cheekpiece are strategically placed slots or rings that offer dual attachment points. The top hook helps to fix the headstall in place, preventing the bit from sliding, while the lower hooks provide options for rein attachment. Riders can choose between a direct rein action (reins attached to the main ring) or an indirect rein action (reins attached to the hook). This versatility allows for clearer, more precise signals for lateral flexion and shoulder control, enhancing the Independent Side Movement (ISM) feature without adding any unwanted leverage. This design ensures the bit remains stable and properly positioned throughout your ride.What are the guidelines for ensuring proper sizing and fit for this Myler bit?Proper sizing is paramount for the effectiveness and comfort of any Myler bit. Myler bits are often noted to measure slightly larger than their advertised size, typically by 1/8" to 1/4". For the correct fit, it's generally recommended that you see approximately 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece visible on each side of your horse's mouth. This
