Unlock a new level of dressage harmony with a bit that prioritizes your horse’s comfort while delivering the precision required for the show ring. The Myler MB 36 Loose Ring Snaffle transforms communication by offering significant tongue relief, allowing your horse to stay soft, relaxed, and focused on your every aid.

Engineered with the revolutionary Level 2-3 "Mullen Forward Tilt Low Ported Barrel," this bit is expertly crafted from sweet iron to encourage salivation and active bit acceptance. The 45-degree forward tilt of the 1" to 1.25" port creates essential space for the tongue to elevate and swallow, while Myler’s signature Independent Side Movement (ISM) ensures that your lateral signals remain clear and distinct, preventing the horse from leaning or bracing against the hand.

Key Features & Specifications:

• USEF & FEI Dressage Legal: Fully approved for recognized competition (USEF since 1/2012, FEI since 7/2016), making it the premier choice for the competitive dressage athlete.
• Myler Level 2-3 Mouthpiece: Ideal for horses with a solid foundation, featuring a 1" to 1.25" forward-tilted port that provides maximum tongue relief and encourages a soft, supple mouth.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): The loose ring design allows each side of the bit to move independently, enabling precise shoulder lifts, bends, and clearer communication without direct tongue pressure.
• Sweet Iron & Copper Inlay: The mouthpiece naturally oxidizes to create a pleasant taste that promotes salivation, leading to a more responsive and accepting partner.
• Ergonomic 45° Port Tilt: Specifically angled to apply pressure primarily to the bars and lips when engaged, while offering a generous "comfort zone" for the tongue when the horse is relaxed.
• Precision Sizing Design: Manufactured 1/8" larger than the stated size to ensure the necessary 1/8" to 1/4" clearance between the lips and the ring holes, preventing painful pinching.
• Durable Stainless Steel Construction: High-quality stainless steel rings ensure long-lasting performance and a professional aesthetic for both training and the arena.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Why is the Myler MB 36 manufactured 1/8" larger than standard bits?
A: This intentional design ensures a proper fit for the curved mouthpiece. It provides the essential 1/8" to 1/4" gap between the horse's lips and the loose ring holes, protecting the sensitive corners of the mouth from being pinched as the rings slide.

Q: Is this bit suitable for a horse that is resistant to tongue pressure?
A: Absolutely. The MB 36 is specifically designed for horses that lean, get heavy, or show resistance to traditional snaffles. The forward-tilted port offers significant tongue relief, allowing horses with large tongues or low palates to swallow and relax their jaw.

Q: Can I use this bit in recognized Dressage competitions?
A: Yes, this specific configuration (MB 36 mouthpiece on a loose ring without hooks) is 100% legal for USEF and FEI dressage. It allows you to maintain the refined communication of a Myler bit while remaining fully compliant with competition rulebooks.
