Myler rates the MB 06 as Level 2-3.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MB 06 is a curved sweet iron mullen with a wide, low port about 3\/4\" high and a copper inlay. The port gives the tongue room to rise slightly and swallow but is too low to create palate pressure, so rein pressure falls mainly on the bars and lips. The curve keeps it from pinching the lips and bars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSweet iron oxidizes and encourages salivation. The HBT is a short shank with indirect action and mild leverage, the MB 06 features Independent Side Movement, and the shorter shank makes grazing easier on the trail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Riders Choose the Myler MB 06\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLow port\u003c\/strong\u003e — a wide 3\/4\" port gives the tongue room to swallow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo palate pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e — the port is too low to reach the palate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurved mouthpiece\u003c\/strong\u003e — does not pinch the lips and bars.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweet iron with copper inlay\u003c\/strong\u003e — oxidizes and encourages salivation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShort HBT shank\u003c\/strong\u003e — mild leverage and easier grazing on the trail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMyler\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMouthpiece\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMB 06 mullen with low ported barrel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMouth\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePort\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLow, about 3\/4\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShank\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5\" stainless steel HBT\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterials\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSweet iron, copper inlay, stainless steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMyler level\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2-3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndirect, mild leverage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: How does the low port work?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Myler MB 06 Mullen Barrel Low Port bit has a wide port about 3\/4\" high.
