Myler MB 33 Combination Bit - Sweet Iron Ported Barrel with Copper Inlay, 6 inch Shank, Level 3

Achieve the ultimate connection with your horse using a bit designed to reward responsiveness with immediate tongue relief and a unique "warning" system. The Myler MB 33 Combination Bit transforms communication from a struggle into a subtle conversation, making it the premier choice for finished horses in high-performance disciplines.

Crafted with the Myler philosophy that "comfort equals performance," this bit features a Sweet Iron Ported Barrel that naturally oxidizes to encourage salivation and a relaxed jaw. The innovative 5-point pressure system distributes rein cues across the nose, poll, chin, bars, and lips, preventing the "clutter" of mixed signals and allowing your horse to focus entirely on your next maneuver with confidence and clarity.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Level 3 Tongue Relief: Features a generous 1 ½" wide port that offers maximum tongue relief, working primarily off the bars and lips without rotating onto the palate.
• 1-Inch "Warning" Slide: The mouthpiece slides one inch before fully engaging, giving your horse a physical signal to respond to your hand before the bit applies direct pressure.
• 5-Point Pressure System: Disperses rein pressure across the nose, poll, chin, bars, and lips for comprehensive, nuanced communication that avoids mouth-only concentration.
• Independent Side Movement™: Allows each side of the bit to move independently, providing clearer, targeted signals for bending, balancing, and lifting a shoulder.
• 6-Inch Shank Leverage: Delivers balanced leverage for refined control, making it ideal for high-speed disciplines like barrel racing, show jumping, and cross-country.
• Sweet Iron & Copper Inlay: The mouthpiece naturally oxidizes to create a sweet taste, promoting salivation and a soft, accepting mouth for sustained focus.
• Precision Sizing: Manufactured to measure approximately 1/8" larger than the stated size to ensure proper clearance and prevent the cheekpieces from rubbing.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for my horse?
A: Myler bits follow the 1/8" oversize rule; for example, a 5" bit actually measures 5 1/8". When fitted correctly, you should see 1/8" to 1/4" of the bit visible on each side of the horse's mouth to ensure the ergonomic curve aligns perfectly with the bars without pinching.

Q: Is this bit suitable for a horse that leans on the hand or evades contact?
A: Yes, the MB 33 is an excellent problem-solving tool for horses that lean or have had mouth trauma. By utilizing nose and poll pressure alongside the 1-inch "warning" slide, it encourages the horse to relax and respond to lighter cues rather than bracing against the mouthpiece.
