Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Myler MB 02 ensure my horse's comfort and even pressure distribution?

The Myler MB 02 features a curved mouthpiece and a wide barrel design that is specifically engineered to accommodate your horse's natural mouth anatomy. This distributes pressure more evenly over the tongue and bars, providing more tongue space and allowing comfortable swallowing when the reins are not engaged. It's a gentle alternative to traditional three-piece mouthpieces, designed to prevent pinching of the lips and bars.

How does this bit improve communication and allow for precise aids?

The MB 02 mouthpiece utilizes both tongue pressure and bar pressure, working primarily off the tongue. It's ideal for horses with basic training or those learning gaits, transitions, and obedience. A key feature is the Independent Side Movement (ISM), where the barrel in the center acts as a bushing, allowing each side of the bit to move independently. This enables the rider to isolate one side for bending, balancing, or lifting a shoulder, providing a more precise and effective signal than traditional bits where the entire mouthpiece moves simultaneously.

Is the Myler MB 02 suitable for my horse's training level?

Yes! The Myler MB 02 is classified as a Level 1 bit, making it generally recommended for young, green, or sensitive horses, or those just starting their training. It's also an excellent choice for horses that tend to be a bit heavy in the hand or those with a thick tongue and crowded mouth conformation, as its design aims to offer valuable tongue relief.

Is the Myler MB 02 Comfort Snaffle legal for dressage competition?

Absolutely! The Myler MB 02 Comfort Snaffle with a stainless steel dee and copper inlay is consistently advertised and confirmed as dressage legal for various major organizations, including USEF, FEI, and USEA. You can compete with confidence knowing your bit adheres to competition standards.

What is the purpose of the copper inlay in the mouthpiece?

The copper inlay is an intentional design feature that helps to encourage salivation in the horse's mouth. Increased salivation promotes a softer, more supple mouth, and can significantly improve the horse's acceptance of the bit, leading to better responsiveness and overall comfort.
