The MB 43MP mouthpiece is considered the mildest of the Level 2-3 Myler mouthpieces in terms of tongue pressure. It is designed to sit solidly across the bars and lips of your horse’s mouth, rather than rotating directly onto the tongue. The narrow medium port (1 ½" high) allows for significant tongue relief while applying little to no palate pressure. When the reins are engaged, the horse experiences a gentle pressure on the outside edges of the tongue, serving as a subtle reminder rather than a strong reprimand, making it ideal for horses ready for more refined cues. What kind of control and leverage does the Myler Flat Shank provide? The 6 ¾" black steel flat shank offers indirect rein action, commonly known as curb rein action, and is intended for use with a curb strap. This design applies pressure to the horse's mouth, chin, and poll, providing a moderate degree of leverage for refined cues. Additionally, it incorporates Myler’s Independent Side Movement (ISM) technology, allowing each side of the bit to move independently. This enables the rider to give clearer, more isolated signals for enhanced lateral work, bending, and collection. What are the benefits of the Sweet Iron mouthpiece and the Black Steel shanks? The Sweet Iron mouthpiece, often with copper inlay, naturally oxidizes (rusts) when exposed to air and moisture. This oxidation process is harmless to horses, creates a pleasant sweet taste, and encourages salivation and relaxation in the horse’s mouth. The Black Steel shanks are durable and will naturally discolor over time to an antique brown patina. This is a normal characteristic of the material and does not affect the bit's performance or structural integrity.
