Achieve a new level of softness and precision with the Myler Kimberwick MB 36, designed to eliminate tongue pressure while providing clear, nuanced communication. This bit is the ultimate solution for horses that resist traditional mullen mouths but require the refined control of mild leverage.

Engineered with Myler’s signature Level 2-3 philosophy, this bit is crafted from high-quality stainless steel to withstand the rigors of daily training and demanding trail miles. The innovative design moves away from the restrictive "nutcracker" action of traditional bits, instead utilizing a central barrel that allows for Independent Side Movement (ISM), enabling you to lift a shoulder or flex your horse with surgical precision without disturbing the opposite side of the mouth.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Forward Tilt Ported Barrel (MB 36): Features a low 1/4" port tilted at a 45° angle to provide generous tongue relief when relaxed and targeted bar/lip pressure when engaged.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): The central barrel acts as a bushing, allowing each side of the mouthpiece to move independently for isolated, clearer signals for bending and balancing.
• Dual Rein Versatility: The Kimberwick "D" ring includes two rein slots, offering the choice between direct snaffle action (top slot) or mild curb leverage (bottom slot) for varied terrain.
• Copper Inlay Technology: Strategically placed copper inlays naturally stimulate salivation, keeping the mouth moist and encouraging a softer, more responsive connection.
• Durable Stainless Steel: Crafted for longevity and resistance to rust, ensuring a reliable performance season after season in jumping, eventing, or trail riding.
• Level 2-3 Design: Specifically suited for horses in basic training or those transitioning from Level 2 who benefit from increased tongue relief to overcome anxiety.
• Anatomical 5-Inch Mouthpiece: Features a distinct curve to accommodate the horse's tongue and mouth structure, providing a more comfortable fit than traditional straight bits.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for the Myler MB 36?
A: To allow the Independent Side Movement (ISM) to function without pinching, follow the Myler "1/8" to 1/4" rule." Unlike traditional bits that fit flush, you should see 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece visible on each side of the horse's lips.

Q: What makes the MB 36 better for my horse than a standard mullen bit?
A: Traditional mullens apply constant tongue pressure; the MB 36 features a forward-tilted port that offers tongue relief when the horse is relaxed. This encourages the horse to swallow and remain soft, only applying pressure to the bars and lips when you engage the reins.

Q: Can I use this bit for trail riding and jumping?
A: Yes! The Kimberwick design is a favorite for jumping, eventing, and trail riding because of its versatility. Use the top slot for direct contact or the bottom slot for mild leverage when you need extra control in open spaces.
