Crafted with the innovative MB 04 mouthpiece, this Level 2 bit features a 1/4-inch low port that offers vital tongue relief, allowing your horse to swallow and relax into the contact. The Baucher (hanging cheek) design provides unparalleled stability within the mouth, making it the ideal choice for horses that struggle with excessive bit movement or require a steady, quiet feel to maintain a consistent frame.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for this Myler bit?
A: Myler bits are designed to fit wider than traditional snaffles. You should see approximately 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece on either side of the lips; this "gap" is essential to ensure the curved design clears the bars and lips without pinching.

Q: Is this bit suitable for a horse that is sensitive to bit movement?
A: Yes! The Baucher (hanging cheek) design is specifically preferred for horses with "busy" mouths because it keeps the mouthpiece suspended and stable, providing a consistent and quiet feel that encourages the horse to settle into the contact.

Q: What makes the MB 04 mouthpiece a "Level 2" bit?
A: As a Level 2 bit, the MB 04 is ideal for horses with basic training who need more tongue relief than a traditional snaffle. The 1/4" port protects the tongue from constant pressure, making it perfect for horses that show signs of tongue sensitivity or resistance.
