Product DetailsProduct Item Number (SKU): 89-28365Bit Type: Loose Ring SnaffleMouthpiece: MB 36 (Myler Level 2-3) with forward-tilted port and copper inlayMaterial: Sweet Iron Mouthpiece, Stainless Steel Loose RingsSize: 5 InchFrequently Asked QuestionsHow does the unique MB 36 mouthpiece work to provide comfort and effective communication?The Myler MB 36 mouthpiece features a wide, low, forward-tilted port, typically 1 inch high and angled at 45 degrees. This innovative design offers significant tongue relief when the horse is relaxed, allowing them to swallow comfortably. When the reins are engaged, the pressure is primarily distributed evenly across the horse's bars and lips, with subtle, controlled pressure directed to the tongue due to its forward tilt. This design encourages the horse to soften and accept the bit, promoting a more willing and responsive partner.What are the advantages of the loose ring design, and are there any considerations for its use?The loose ring cheekpiece allows the mouthpiece to slide freely around the rings, providing the horse with more freedom to position the bit comfortably in their mouth. This mobility can encourage salivation, promote a softer jaw, and prevent the horse from leaning or fixing on the bit, enhancing responsiveness. A key consideration is sizing; to prevent pinching of the horse's lips, loose ring bits are often recommended to be 1/4 to 1/2 inch larger than fixed-ring bits.Is the Myler MB 36 bit legal for competitive dressage, and what is its Myler Level?Yes, for competitive riders, rest assured that the Myler MB 36 Loose Ring Snaffle Bit is fully approved for both USEF (United States Equestrian Federation) and FEI (Fédération Équestre Internationale) dressage competitions. It is classified as a Myler Bitting Level 2-3 mouthpiece, indicating it is designed for horses with a solid foundation in training.What materials are used in this bit, and how do they promote a softer mouth?The Myler MB 36 typically features a sweet iron mouthpiece with a precision-engineered copper inlay. Sweet iron naturally oxidizes when exposed to air and moisture, creating a sweet taste that encourages salivation and helps promote a softer, more accepting mouth in the horse. This, combined with the copper inlay, enhances responsiveness to the rider's cues and encourages a more relaxed jaw.Which type of horse is best suited for the Myler MB 36 bit?The MB 36, as a Myler Level 2-3 mouthpiece, is ideal for horses with basic training and good self-control that are progressing in their education. It's particularly effective for horses that are generally polite but may occasionally show resistance or need gentle encouragement to accept the bit and stay focused. It provides a beneficial step up in tongue relief compared to lower Myler levels, making it suitable for horses ready for more refined aids and subtle communication.Elevate your ride and achieve your dressage goals with confidence.
