This design distributes pressure evenly across the tongue, provides more space for comfortable swallowing, and actively prevents pinching of the lips or bars. The presence of a sweet iron construction and copper inlay further encourages salivation and acceptance, significantly enhancing overall comfort and relaxation.What is Independent Side Movement (ISM) and how does it benefit my riding?Independent Side Movement (ISM) is a hallmark feature of the Myler MB 02. The unique central barrel acts as a bushing, allowing each side of the bit to move completely independently. This crucial design element empowers the rider to give clearer, more isolated lateral aids. This means highly beneficial advantages for refined bending, precise balancing, and effectively lifting a horse's shoulder – skills vital for advanced dressage training and performance.Which horses are best suited for the Myler MB 02 Loose Ring Snaffle?As a Myler Level 1 bit, the MB 02 is primarily designed for young or green horses, those just starting their training journey, or horses newly introduced to the Myler bitting system. Its gentle tongue pressure encourages the horse to give to the bit, break at the poll, and fosters overall communication through comfort and relaxation. It's also an excellent choice for horses with a "fat tongue" or crowded mouth conformation, as its ergonomic design provides ample space.What are the advantages of the loose ring cheekpiece, and are there any considerations?The free-rotating loose rings encourage the horse to mouth the bit and discourage leaning or locking against the mouthpiece, thereby enhancing sensitivity to rein aids and promoting a softer connection. While generally highly beneficial, some riders might observe that the constant motion could occasionally make it slightly harder for very young or anxious horses to "find your hands" or might exaggerate a "busy mouth." However, the Myler MB 02's specifically curved mouthpiece is engineered to prevent the common lip pinching sometimes associated with other loose ring designs, ensuring maximum comfort.Product DetailsProduct Item Number (SKU): 89-28137Ready to transform your dressage experience?
