Because the ergonomic curve fits about 1\/8\" wider than a straight bit, always size up if your pony measures between sizes to prevent the fixed Dee rings from pinching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is this bit suitable for a pony that is just starting its training?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: This is a Level 2-3 bit, meaning it is best suited for ponies that have completed basic training or are undergoing retraining. It offers a more sophisticated level of communication by utilizing more bar pressure and less tongue pressure than a Level 1 bit, helping established ponies refine their responsiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 89-21323\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Myler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42250691412189,"sku":"89-21323","price":143.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/optimized_d9115cfb-5375-44f5-b602-f01e5581f852.webp?v=1767059940","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/myler-dee-snaffle-bit-stainless-steel-mullen-barrel-copper-inlay-4-1-2","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
