Myler Black Steel Seven Shank Horse Bit - 5" Mouth MB 33 Medium Wide Ported Barrel Sweet Iron with Copper Inlay - 6 3/4" Shank

Achieve ultimate refinement and a soft, willing connection with a bit designed to eliminate tongue pressure and reward your horse's responsiveness. The Myler MB 33 Seven Shank transforms subtle cues into precise performance, making it the premier choice for finished horses in the show ring or on the trail.Crafted from durable black steel, this bit features the innovative MB 33 mouthpiece—a Level 3 design providing the highest degree of tongue relief in the Myler system. The sweet iron construction naturally oxidizes to create a sweet taste that encourages salivation, while the 1.5-inch medium-wide port allows your horse to swallow freely, promoting a relaxed jaw and total focus on your aids rather than oral discomfort.Key Features & Specifications:Frequently Asked Questions:Q: Is this bit appropriate for a young horse just starting under saddle?A: No, the MB 33 is a Level 3 bit designed specifically for "finished" horses that are already responsive to seat and leg aids. Younger horses typically require the more direct tongue pressure found in Level 1 or Level 2 bits to understand basic cues during the early stages of training.Q: How do I ensure the correct fit and adjustment for this leverage bit?A: Because Myler bits are built 1/8-inch wider than stated to allow for the "Myler Gap," you should ensure there is slight clearance on both sides of the mouth. For proper communication, adjust your curb strap or chain so that it engages when the shank reaches a 45-degree angle.Item Number/SKU: 89-13335
