Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the Myler MB 02 Dee Snaffle Bit best suited for?

This is a "Level 1" bit, ideal for horses in basic training, those learning fundamental gaits, transitions, and obedience, or horses that are just starting their training journey. It's also highly recommended for young, green, or sensitive horses, or for disciplines that restrict bits to a single-jointed mouthpiece. It aims to build a solid foundation of communication.

How does this bit ensure my horse's comfort and proper pressure distribution?

The Myler MB 02 features a curved mouthpiece specifically designed to disperse pressure, accommodate the natural anatomy of the horse's mouth, and provide more space for the tongue, allowing for easier swallowing. The "wide barrel" design distributes pressure more evenly and kindly across the tongue and bars compared to traditional mouthpieces. Additionally, the copper inlay encourages salivation and acceptance of the bit, contributing to a happier and more relaxed horse.

How does the Myler MB 02 improve communication and stability?

This bit incorporates Myler's innovative Independent Side Movement™ (ISM), which allows each side of the bit to move independently. This provides clearer, more precise signals for bending, balancing, or lifting a shoulder, as only one side of the bit moves when a single rein is engaged. The fixed cheeks of the Dee ring offer increased stability in the horse's mouth, which can be particularly beneficial for horses with fussy mouths or riders with unsteady hands. It also assists with clear direct turning aids and prevents the bit from sliding through the mouth.

Is the Myler MB 02 Dee Snaffle Bit legal for dressage competitions?

Yes, absolutely! The Myler MB 02 Dee Snaffle Bit is confirmed to be legal for use in USEF, FEI, and USEA dressage competitions, making it a versatile and compliant choice for competitive riders across various disciplines.

Are there any specific sizing considerations or common concerns with this bit?

While generally considered a mild bit, some users note that the Myler MB 02 can run slightly large. It's crucial to ensure a proper fit, as an ill-fitting bit could lead to it being ineffective or potentially causing soreness if it slides too much. Always consult with a professional to ensure the correct size and fit for your horse to maximize comfort and communication effectiveness. As with any bit, correct usage and fitting are paramount for your horse's comfort and responsiveness.
