Myler MB 32-3 Eggbutt Snaffle Bit - Mullen Barrel, 5" Mouth Stainless Steel with Copper Inlay, Level 2 ISM

Unlock a new level of responsiveness and mutual trust with a bit designed to reward relaxation and clarify your every aid. The Myler MB 32-3 Eggbutt Snaffle bridges the gap between basic training and refined performance, offering your horse the tongue relief they need to truly focus on the job.

Crafted from premium, high-grade stainless steel with strategic copper inlays, this Level 2 bit is engineered for the horse that has mastered the basics but requires more nuanced communication. The innovative triple-barrel mullen design provides a "forgiving" feel when the horse is soft, while the Independent Side Movement (ISM) ensures that your lateral aids—like lifting a shoulder or bending—are delivered with surgical precision without interfering with the opposite side of the mouth.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Myler Level 2 Progression: Specifically designed for horses with foundational training who are ready for increased tongue relief and more refined control.
• Triple Barrel Mullen Mouthpiece: An innovative design that remains flexible and soft when the horse is relaxed, but transforms into a solid, curved bar for even pressure distribution when the reins are engaged.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): Allows the rider to move one side of the bit independently, providing clearer signals for lateral work and preventing "muddled" communication.
• Copper Inlay Technology: High-quality copper inlays promote natural salivation, warming quickly to encourage a soft, moist, and accepting mouth.
• Stable Eggbutt Cheeks: The fixed-cheek design provides a steady feel in the mouth, preventing the bit from sliding and eliminating the risk of pinching at the corners of the lips.
• Premium Stainless Steel: Constructed from professional-grade stainless steel for maximum durability, corrosion resistance, and a lasting high-shine finish.
• Anatomical Curve: The mouthpiece is expertly shaped to wrap around the bars and tongue, avoiding the aggressive "nutcracker" action of traditional jointed snaffles.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Is the Myler MB 32-3 legal for Dressage competitions?
A: No, the MB 32-3 is generally NOT dressage legal in most organizations (including USEF and FEI) due to the triple-barrel mechanism. It is an ideal choice for schooling, jumping, or western disciplines where nuanced communication is required.

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for this specific Myler bit?
A: Due to the anatomical curve, Myler bits often require a size 1/4" larger than a standard flat bit. For a perfect fit, ensure that 1/8” to 1/4” of the mouthpiece is visible on each side of the horse's mouth to prevent the cheekpieces from pinching the lips.

Q: What are the benefits of the Triple Barrel design over a standard mullen mouth?
A: Unlike a rigid mullen, the triple barrel allows for flexibility and tongue elevation when the horse is relaxed. It only becomes a solid bar when you engage the reins, offering a "reward" for a horse that stays soft and on the bit.
