Myler MB 27PB Sweet Iron Correctional Curb Bit - 5" Mouth - 7" Flat Shank - Copper Inlay - Level 2-3

Achieve unparalleled precision in your Western training while providing your horse with the ergonomic comfort of a Myler curved mouthpiece. The MB 27PB is the ultimate tool for riders seeking to refine communication and lift the shoulder without the harsh pinching associated with traditional jointed bits.

Expertly engineered for the transitioning horse, this bit features a high-quality Sweet Iron mouthpiece that naturally oxidizes to create a palatable taste, encouraging salivation and a softer, more responsive mouth. The 7" stainless steel flat shanks provide balanced leverage and stability, ensuring that every cue is delivered with the clarity and consistency required for advanced schooling and refinement.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Level 2–3 Mouthpiece: Ideal for horses with basic training who require more direct communication and a moderate level of correction as they progress toward self-carriage.
• Independent Side Movement: Features Myler’s patented design allowing each side of the bit to move separately, enabling you to isolate a single shoulder for precise bending, balancing, and lifting.
• 5" Curved Mouthpiece: The ergonomically curved design wraps around the bars and tongue rather than sitting straight across, preventing the "nutcracker" pinch and allowing the horse to swallow more easily.
• Correctional High-Ported Barrel: Features a 1.25" port that offers significant tongue relief when the horse is relaxed, but applies two concentrated pressure points when engaged for immediate, clear control.
• Sweet Iron & Copper Inlay: The mouthpiece is crafted to oxidize naturally, creating a sweet taste that, combined with copper inlays, promotes salivation and encourages the horse to lean confidently into the bit.
• 7" Stainless Steel Flat Shanks: Provides exceptional stability and balanced pressure distribution across the poll, bars, and chin for effective Western training sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Is the Myler MB 27PB legal for Western show classes?
A: Because of its "correctional" collapsing port design, the MB 27PB is typically not legal for most sanctioned show classes. It is primarily designed as a highly effective training and schooling tool to refine responsiveness before moving into a show-legal curb.

Q: How does the "Correctional" action help my horse?
A: Unlike a solid curb, this mouthpiece collapses onto the bars and rotates onto the tongue to provide two concentrated pressure points. This offers more authority and clearer feedback for horses that may be resisting milder bits or those transitioning from a Level 2 mouthpiece.

Q: Will the 5" size fit my horse?
A: The 5" mouthpiece is the industry standard for average-sized horses. Because of the Myler curved design, it fits more comfortably across the bars than a traditional straight bit, often resulting in a more relaxed jaw and better bit acceptance.
