Key Features & Specifications:

• Myler Level 1 Mouthpiece: Features a curved, single-jointed design that wraps gently around the bars and lips to prevent the painful pinching and "nutcracker" action of traditional bits.
• Integrated Copper Inlays: Actively promotes salivation and relaxation, neutralizing mouth acids to encourage a softer jaw and more willing bit acceptance.
• Stable English Dee Rings: The 3 3/4" stainless steel Dee rings provide a fixed, stable feel that prevents the bit from being pulled through the mouth while offering unmistakable lateral guidance.
• Competition Legal Design: Fully compliant with USEF, FEI, and USEA standards, making it an ideal choice for the dressage phase of eventing and pure dressage competition.
• Optimized 5 1/4" Sizing: Specifically engineered for a "wider" fit, following the Myler 1/8" to 1/4" rule to ensure the mouthpiece sits comfortably without restricting the tongue.
• Durable Stainless Steel Construction: High-quality materials ensure long-lasting rust resistance and a consistent feel for years of training and top-tier performance.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for the Myler MB 09?
A: Unlike traditional bits, Myler bits are designed to sit slightly wider; you should see approximately 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece visible on each side of the horse's mouth to accommodate the curve and prevent lip pinching.

Q: Is this bit legal for USEF and FEI dressage?
A: Yes, the MB 09 Dee Snaffle is officially approved for competition in USEF, FEI, and USEA dressage, offering the stable, direct communication required for high-level performance without the use of hooks.
