Myler 6" 3 Ring Combination Bit Low Port Comfort Snaffle MB 04 - Natural Rawhide

This bit features 6" three ring cheeks, a Myler MB 04 low port comfort snaffle, and a hackamore like noseband. This is a Myler level 2 bit.

The MB 04 is similar to the MB 02 in that it will rotate on the tongue and apply tongue pressure; however, it has a small 1/4" port that introduces some tongue relief to the horse. The port allows the horse to swallow and move his tongue when he is moving forward and relaxed, which acts as a release or reward. The mouthpiece is curved, wrapping around the bars and lips instead of pinching. Sweet iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation.

The 6" stainless steel 3-ring combination bit is a hybrid of a ring bit, shank bit, and hackamore and uses five different pressure points to disperse rein pressure. Because the noseband and chin strap are connected through the purchase, when the reins are engaged, the horse first feels nose, chin and poll pressure before he feels the mouthpiece. The mouthpiece can slide 1" before reaching a stop, where it will then engage and apply pressure. The purpose is to give the horse an opportunity to respond to the riders rein signals before applying mouthpiece pressure. The combination bit has an Independent Swivel Cheek, and the purchase is slightly angled away from the cheek to prevent rubbing. The noseband is flat leather with a knotted cord on either side, and the chin strap is synthetic to avoid stretching over time.
