Myler MB 43LP English Dee Snaffle Bit - Stainless Steel with Copper Inlay, Low Ported Barrel, 3 3/4" Dee Ring, Level 2-3

Unlock a new level of responsiveness and trust by providing your horse with the superior tongue relief they crave. The Myler MB 43LP English Dee Snaffle is specifically designed to transition horses from basic schooling to refined, nuanced communication without the discomfort of traditional jointed bits.

This masterfully crafted bit features the innovative Level 2-3 Narrow Low Ported Barrel, which sits comfortably across the bars and lips rather than rotating onto the sensitive tongue. The combination of durable stainless steel and salivation-inducing copper inlays creates a palatable experience that encourages a soft, relaxed mouth, making it an essential tool for riders in the hunter, jumper, and eventing circuits seeking a more harmonious connection.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Level 2-3 MB 43LP Mouthpiece: Provides significant tongue relief for horses with established foundations who are ready for more advanced, nuanced cues.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): The innovative design allows each side of the bit to move independently, enabling the rider to give isolated signals for bending, balancing, or lifting a specific shoulder.
• Stainless Steel with Copper Inlay: Forged from premium, rust-resistant stainless steel with copper inlays that naturally encourage salivation and bit acceptance.
• 3 3/4" English Dee Rings: Offers exceptional lateral stability and direct rein contact while preventing the bit from being pulled through the horse's mouth.
• Ergonomic Curved Design: Features a "U" shape rather than a "V," eliminating the painful nutcracker effect on the bars and preventing the bit from poking the roof of the mouth.
• Narrow Low Ported Barrel: Distributes pressure evenly across the bars and lips, applying only gentle pressure to the outer edges of the tongue when the reins are engaged.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I determine the correct size for my horse given Myler's unique design?
A: Myler bits are manufactured to be 1/8" wider than the stated size to accommodate their ergonomic curve. For a proper fit, you should see approximately 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece on each side of the horse's mouth to ensure the bit functions correctly without pinching.

Q: Is the Myler MB 43LP English Dee legal for use in Dressage competitions?
A: While this bit is a premier choice for schooling, hunters, and jumpers, the MB 43LP mouthpiece is generally not dressage legal in sanctioned USEF or FEI competitions due to the port and barrel design. Always consult your specific organization's rulebook for the most current equipment guidelines.

Q: What are the benefits of the copper inlay in the mouthpiece?
A: The copper inlay is designed to create a sweet taste that stimulates salivation. This helps the horse maintain a "wet," relaxed mouth, which leads to better acceptance of the bit and a more responsive, willing partner under saddle.
