Elevate your horse’s performance with a bit designed to eliminate the "nutcracker" pinch and foster a soft, willing connection. This dressage-legal Myler Dee Snaffle provides the perfect balance of tongue relief and stable lateral guidance to transform your communication from resistance to harmony.

Engineered with the innovative MB 06 Mullen Barrel Low Port, this bit offers Level 2-3 tongue relief, allowing your horse to swallow naturally and relax their jaw for a more consistent contact. The combination of high-quality stainless steel and strategically placed copper inlays promotes natural salivation, ensuring a moist, responsive mouth while the Independent Side Movement (ISM) allows for pinpoint lateral cues without interfering with the opposite side of the mouthpiece.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Mullen Barrel Low Port (MB 06): Provides Level 2-3 tongue relief to encourage relaxation and acceptance in horses ready for refined communication.
• Dressage Legal Design: Features 3 3/4" stainless steel Dee rings without hooks, ensuring full compliance with USEF (1/2012) and FEI (7/2016) regulations.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): Enables the rider to lift one side of the bit independently, providing clearer, more sophisticated lateral aids.
• Integrated Copper Inlays: Naturally stimulates salivation to keep the mouth soft, supple, and receptive to your cues throughout your ride.
• Ergonomic Curved Bars: The anatomically shaped mouthpiece prevents the painful pinching of traditional snaffles, protecting the bars and palate from pressure.
• Stable Lateral Support: The classic Dee-ring cheekpiece offers a steady feel and prevents the bit from being pulled through the mouth, making it a favorite for Hunter, Jumper, and Dressage disciplines.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for a Myler bit?
A: Myler bits are manufactured to be 1/8" wider than their stated size (e.g., a 5" bit measures 5 1/8"). For the most comfortable fit, Myler recommends that 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece remains visible on either side of the mouth to allow the curved design to sit properly over the tongue without rubbing the lips.

Q: Is this specific model legal for USEF and FEI Dressage competition?
A: Yes, because this version features the Dee-ring without hooks (slots), it is fully approved for USEF and FEI dressage phases. It is an excellent "crossover" bit for riders who want a stable, show-legal look that offers advanced technical communication.

Q: What makes the Level 2-3 mouthpiece different from a standard snaffle?
A: Unlike a traditional single-jointed snaffle that collapses on the bars, the MB 06 offers a port for tongue relief and a barrel that prevents the "nutcracker" action. This design encourages the horse to relax their poll and jaw, making it ideal for horses that are generally obedient but need a gentler invitation to soften.
