This Level 2-3 hybrid is the ultimate tool for riders in high-speed disciplines who need refined control without sacrificing their horse's comfort or willingness to swallow.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Myler MB 36 is a masterpiece of equestrian engineering, featuring a sweet iron mouthpiece that naturally oxidizes to encourage salivation and relaxation. Its unique 5-point pressure system—incorporating the nose, chin, poll, bars, and lips—disperses rein aids more effectively than traditional bits, while the 1-inch forward-tilted port provides vital tongue relief for the advancing horse. By allowing the mouthpiece to slide one full inch before reaching a stop, this bit rewards the horse for responding to light poll and nose pressure, fostering a more responsive and confident partner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features \u0026amp; Specifications:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMB 36 Forward Tilt Mouthpiece:\u003c\/strong\u003e Features a 1\" low port tilted at a 45-degree angle to allow for easy swallowing while avoiding painful palate pressure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5-Point Pressure System:\u003c\/strong\u003e Disperses rein aids across the nose, chin, poll, bars, and lips, acting as a sophisticated hybrid between a ring bit, shank, and hackamore.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndependent Side Movement:\u003c\/strong\u003e The mouthpiece allows the rider to engage one side of the bit independently for more precise lateral cues and better shoulder control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweet Iron with Copper Inlay:\u003c\/strong\u003e The mouthpiece is designed to oxidize, creating a sweet taste that promotes a moist, responsive mouth and encourages salivation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable Leverage Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 6\" stainless steel 3-ring shank offers three rein positions (Big Ring, Middle, and Bottom) to customize the degree of leverage from direct rein to mild leverage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated Pre-Signal:\u003c\/strong\u003e The mouthpiece slides 1\" before engaging, giving the horse the opportunity to respond to nose and poll pressure before the mouthpiece touches the bars.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePremium Materials:\u003c\/strong\u003e Constructed with a flat leather noseband with knotted cord accents and a synthetic chin strap designed to resist stretching over time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How do I choose the right size for my horse?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Myler bits are intentionally manufactured 1\/8” to 1\/4” larger than their stated size to accommodate the curved bars and Independent Side Movement. If your horse typically wears a 5\" bit, order the 5\" Myler, as the necessary \"buffer\" space is already built-in to prevent pinching the lips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is this bit legal for Dressage competition?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: While the MB 36 mouthpiece offers excellent relief, the 3-ring combination cheek configuration is generally not dressage legal. It is, however, a premier choice for Jumpers, Cross Country, and Barrel Racing where multi-point communication and agility are essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is the benefit of the Level 2-3 mouthpiece over a standard snaffle?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Unlike a traditional snaffle that can collapse and pinch, the MB 36 protects the tongue with its low port. It is ideal for horses that have a basic training foundation but require tongue relief to stay relaxed, while still offering the rider enough control for technical maneuvers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 89-31368\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Myler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42250705273053,"sku":"89-31368","price":239.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/optimized_c2380a09-ea91-446c-850b-15ff90680aac.webp?v=1767069756","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/myler-3-ring-combination-bit-mb-36-mullen-forward-tilt","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
