Achieve a more harmonious connection and eliminate resistance with the Myler MB 36 Loose Ring Snaffle, the ultimate tool for riders seeking precision and tongue relief. This dressage-legal bit encourages your horse to relax their jaw and respond to subtle cues, transforming your communication from a struggle into a willing partnership.

Engineered for the advancing horse, the MB 36 features a Mullen Forward Tilt Low Ported Barrel crafted from high-quality sweet iron. This innovative material naturally oxidizes to create a sweet taste that stimulates salivation, while the 45-degree forward-tilted port provides significant tongue relief, preventing the horse from leaning on the bit or ducking behind the vertical.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Myler Level 2-3 Mouthpiece: Features a 1/4-inch port tilted forward at a 45-degree angle to provide superior tongue relief while distributing pressure evenly across the bars and lips.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): Allows the rider to lift one shoulder or flex one side independently, delivering clear, unambiguous signals without affecting the opposite side of the bit.
• Sweet Iron with Copper Inlay: The mouthpiece is designed to oxidize, promoting a moist and responsive mouth for enhanced bit acceptance and relaxation.
• Dressage Competition Ready: Fully approved for both USEF and FEI Dressage competitions, making it the perfect choice for the ambitious competitive rider.
• Precision 5-Inch Sizing: Specifically engineered to run 1/8" to 1/4" larger (measuring approx. 5.125" to 5.25") to ensure a safe gap between the lips and the rings, preventing painful pinching.
• Stainless Steel Loose Rings: Durable, high-quality stainless steel rings allow the mouthpiece to move freely, encouraging a softer jaw and preventing the horse from fixing on the bit.
• Targeted Training Solution: Ideal for horses with a solid foundation that need gentle encouragement to stay focused, swallow easily, and maintain a soft, rounded frame.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Why does this 5-inch bit measure slightly larger than a standard 5-inch bit?
A: Myler loose ring bits are intentionally engineered to be 1/8" to 1/4" larger than their stated size. This extra clearance ensures the loose rings do not pinch or pull into the horse's mouth during lateral cues, providing a more comfortable and effective fit.

Q: Is the MB 36 appropriate for a horse that tends to lean on the rider's hand?
A: Absolutely. The Level 2-3 ported design is specifically intended for horses that exhibit resistance like leaning. By providing tongue relief and using Independent Side Movement, it encourages the horse to relax, swallow, and carry themselves rather than fixing against the bit.
