Myler MB36 Loose Ring Snaffle Bit - Dressage Legal, Copper Inlay, 14mm Port, USEF & FEI Approved

Achieve a softer, more responsive connection by providing your horse the tongue relief they need to truly relax and focus. This dressage-legal masterpiece eliminates the bracing and leaning that hinders performance, allowing for a light, consistent contact and unparalleled harmony.

The Myler MB36 is a sophisticated communication tool crafted from high-quality stainless steel, engineered specifically for horses with a solid foundation who require a more nuanced approach to bit acceptance. By utilizing a forward-tilted port and Independent Side Movement (ISM), this bit respects the equine anatomy, allowing for precise aids that encourage a supple, "wet" mouth and a horse that is truly through and willing.

Key Features & Specifications:

• USEF & FEI Dressage Legal: Fully approved for competition (USEF 2012 and FEI 2016), allowing you to train and compete with the same high-performance equipment.
• 14mm Forward-Tilted Port: The 1/4" low port is angled at 45 degrees to provide generous tongue relief and allow comfortable swallowing when the horse is relaxed.
• Myler Level 2-3 Mouthpiece: Specifically designed for horses with basic training who need increased tongue relief to progress toward self-carriage without resistance.
• Integrated Copper Inlays: Strategically placed to stimulate salivation, which leads to a naturally softer, more pliable, and receptive mouth.
• Loose Ring with ISM: The loose ring design offers Independent Side Movement, providing clearer signals and preventing the horse from leaning or fixing on the bit.
• Anatomical Curved Design: The mouthpiece is curved to accommodate the tongue and bars, distributing pressure evenly and reducing the "nutcracker" effect of traditional snaffles.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for a Myler MB36 bit?
A: Myler bits are curved to fit the tongue, which means they often measure about 1/8" larger than standard straight bits. For the best performance, you should see 1/8" to 1/4" of the bit visible on each side of the mouth; this gap ensures the Independent Side Movement functions correctly without pinching the lips.

Q: Is the 14mm thickness suitable for horses with smaller mouths?
A: Yes, the 14mm diameter is a standard dressage thickness that is often preferred for horses with less room in their mouths or "fleshy" tongues. It provides clear, precise signals while the forward-tilted port ensures the horse doesn't feel crowded or restricted.
