They prevent the bit from sliding around in the horse's mouth, a common issue with traditional eggbutts. They also offer multiple rein positions, allowing for either direct or indirect rein action. Additionally, they provide a convenient attachment point for an optional curb strap, all generally without adding significant leverage.How does this Myler bit ensure my horse's comfort and provide tongue relief?This Myler bit (often featuring an MB 04, Level 2 mouthpiece) is engineered for equine comfort. It includes a small port that offers crucial tongue relief, which is highly beneficial for horses that are sensitive to constant tongue pressure. The mouthpiece is also curved to prevent pinching of the horse's lips and bars, ensuring a comfortable fit. This thoughtful design makes it suitable for a wide range of horses, including green horses, those transitioning from single-jointed bits, or horses with sensitive mouths or large tongues.How does this bit enhance communication and encourage acceptance?This Myler bit enhances communication through its Independent Side Movement (ISM) feature, allowing you to apply pressure to one side of the bit independently. This delivers clearer, more isolated signals, aiding effectively in lateral flexion, bending, and shoulder control. Furthermore, the strategic copper inlay is key to encouraging salivation, promoting relaxation, and fostering better acceptance of the bit due to its mild, sweet taste.Is this bit suitable for all training levels and is it legal for competition?While the MB 04 (Level 2) mouthpiece is designed to be versatile and suitable for a broad spectrum of horses and training stages – from green horses to those needing re-schooling – it's important to note its legality for competition. Due to the inclusion of hooks and the specific mouthpiece design, this bit is generally not legal for competitive disciplines such as USEF, USDF, and FEI Dressage.Product DetailsProduct Item Number (SKU): 89-30367Add to Cart and experience the difference this Myler bit can make in your partnership!
