Achieve a new level of refined communication and effortless control with a bit designed specifically for the finished horse. The Myler Kimberwick with the MB 33 mouthpiece offers maximum tongue relief and independent side movement, transforming your ride into a harmonious partnership built on trust and responsiveness.

Meticulously crafted from high-quality stainless steel, this Level 3 bit is engineered for the horse that is advanced in its training and ready for a softer, more sophisticated connection. The state-of-the-art ported barrel design minimizes tongue pressure by utilizing a wide port that allows the tongue to pass underneath, while the integrated copper inlays promote a moist, relaxed mouth for ultimate bit acceptance.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Level 3 MB 33 Mouthpiece: Provides maximum tongue relief with a wide ported barrel, making it the mildest Myler mouthpiece for horses that are consistent, "finished," and respond primarily to seat and leg aids.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): Features an internal barrel that allows each side of the bit to move independently, enabling precise, isolated rein cues for lifting a shoulder or bending without affecting the opposite side.
• Premium Stainless Steel Construction: Offers exceptional durability and superior rust resistance, ensuring a long-lasting, professional-grade performance in the arena or on the trail.
• Integrated Copper Inlays: Strategically placed along the mouthpiece to encourage salivation and a "soft" mouth, enhancing your horse's comfort and willingness to accept the bit.
• Versatile Kimberwick Cheekpiece: Provides mild leverage and gentle poll pressure with two rein attachment options, allowing you to customize the degree of control and collection for jumping, eventing, or schooling.
• Precision Myler Sizing: Engineered to measure approximately 1/8" larger than the advertised size to ensure a perfect fit with the 1/8" to 1/4" of side clearance required for optimal comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Is the Level 3 MB 33 ported barrel too mild for a horse that gets strong over fences?
A: Not at all. While the MB 33 is the mildest Myler mouthpiece regarding tongue pressure, the Kimberwick cheekpiece provides the necessary leverage and poll pressure to maintain "whoa" and collection. This combination allows for superior control without the need for a harsh mouthpiece, making it ideal for show jumping or eventing.

Q: How do I ensure I am ordering the correct size for my horse?
A: Myler bits follow the "1/8-inch rule," meaning they are built slightly larger than the advertised size to provide the necessary clearance. If your horse measures exactly 5", a 5" Myler will fit perfectly, leaving the recommended 1/8" to 1/4" of the bit visible on either side of the lips.

Q: Does this bit require a curb chain to function properly?
A: Yes, a Kimberwick requires a curb chain to engage its leverage and poll pressure features. For the best results, adjust the chain so you can comfortably fit two fingers between the chain and the horse’s chin; this ensures the bit remains effective without causing discomfort.
