Myler Kimberwick Snaffle Bit - MB 04 Level 2 Low Port Tongue Relief Stainless Steel & Copper Inlay
- Vendor: Myler
Product description
Stop struggling with a strong or opinionated horse and experience the refined communication of the Myler Kimberwick Snaffle Bit. This Level 2 bit provides the perfect balance of mild leverage and superior tongue relief, allowing you to achieve a harmonious connection without the harshness of traditional bits.
Expertly engineered with Myler’s signature MB 04 mouthpiece, this bit is crafted from durable stainless steel with integrated copper inlays to promote relaxation and acceptance. The unique 1/4" low port design eliminates the restrictive "nutcracker" effect found in standard jointed snaffles, while the Independent Side Movement (ISM) allows for isolated cues that help you lift a shoulder or bend with precision.
Key Features & Specifications:
- MB 04 Low Port Design: Features a 1/4" port that provides significant tongue relief, reducing direct pressure and encouraging the horse to relax, swallow, and focus.
- Independent Side Movement (ISM): The patented central barrel allows each side of the bit to move independently, enabling precise, isolated signals for bending or lifting a shoulder.
- Copper Inlay Technology: Strategic copper strips on the stainless steel mouthpiece promote natural salivation and a "sweet" taste, fostering a softer jaw and greater bit acceptance.
- Kimberwick Leverage Action: Delivers mild-to-moderate control by applying pressure to the bars, chin, and poll—ideal for jumping, eventing, or spirited trail horses.
- Myler Level 2 Engineering: Specifically designed for horses with basic training that require enhanced tongue relief to respond willingly to refined cues.
- Durable Stainless Steel: Expertly constructed from high-quality, rust-resistant stainless steel for exceptional longevity and easy maintenance.
- Precision Sizing: Manufactured to run slightly large (roughly 1/8" to 1/4" over advertised size) to accommodate the necessary "Myler Gap" for optimal performance.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How do I ensure I have the correct size for the Myler Kimberwick?
A: A correctly fitted Myler should show the "Myler Gap," which is 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece visible on each side of the lips. Set the bit to create approximately one soft wrinkle in the corner of the mouth; it should not sit flush against the face like a traditional snaffle.
Q: Is this bit legal for my specific riding discipline?
A: The Myler Kimberwick is an excellent choice for jumping, eventing, and trail riding where extra control is needed with a single rein. However, because it is a leverage bit, the Kimberwick cheekpiece is generally not permitted for formal Dressage or many Hunter classes.
