Achieve a new level of softness and trust with a bit designed to eliminate tongue pressure and encourage a quiet, responsive mouth. This Myler Loose Ring Snaffle is the ultimate solution for horses that resist traditional jointed bits, fostering the clear, refined communication necessary for a truly harmonious ride.

The Myler Level 2-3 MB06 mouthpiece is a masterpiece of ergonomic engineering, featuring a 14mm Mullen Low Port Barrel that tapers to approximately 11mm at the center to maximize tongue room and comfort. Crafted from high-quality stainless steel with strategic copper inlays to stimulate salivation, this bit utilizes Independent Side Movement (ISM) to allow riders to give precise, one-sided aids—such as lifting a shoulder—without disturbing the opposite side of the horse's mouth.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Myler Level 2-3 Design: Ideal for horses with established basic training that require tongue relief to overcome resistance, bracing, or gaping.
• Mullen Low Port Barrel (MB06): The 3/4" port provides significant tongue clearance while preventing painful palate pressure, distributing weight evenly across the bars and lips.
• Independent Side Movement: Allows each side of the bit to move independently, enabling refined communication and clearer lateral aids for the advanced rider.
• Dressage Competition Legal: Fully compliant with USEF and FEI dressage regulations, making it a versatile choice for both schooling and the show ring.
• Loose Ring Cheekpiece: Discourages the horse from leaning on the bit and provides an immediate, crisp release of pressure the moment the rein aid is softened.
• Copper Inlay Technology: High-copper inlays promote salivation and a "sweet" taste, encouraging a softer, more pliable mouth and better bit acceptance.
• Premium 14mm Stainless Steel: Constructed for exceptional durability and a smooth finish, ensuring long-lasting performance and easy maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for this Myler Loose Ring bit?
A: Myler bits are designed with a curve that typically measures 1/8" larger than the stated size (e.g., a 5" bit measures 5 1/8"). For a loose ring, you should ensure a 1/8" to 1/4" gap between the horse’s cheek and the ring hole on both sides to prevent the lips from being pinched during use.

Q: Why is the 14mm thickness and tapering design beneficial?
A: The 14mm thickness at the bars provides a comfortable surface area, while the taper to 11mm at the center creates essential room for the tongue. This specific geometry is perfect for horses that "get behind the bit" or show signs of tongue sensitivity, as it removes the "nutcracker" action of a standard snaffle.
