Description
This is a lightly used pre owned Myler® Toklat stainless steel loose 50 mm "O" ring "snaffle bit" with a stainless steel MB02 comfort wide barrel mouthpiece that measures 5-1/2 inches wide. The Myler® Loose Ring Comfort Snaffle MB 02 is a Level 1 loose ring bit intended for horses beginning training. The Comfort Snaffle Wide Barrel mouthpiece is the Myler alternative to the traditional three-piece mouthpiece commonly used in snaffle bits. The free-rotating barrel uses mostly tongue pressure and collapses onto the bars. The curved mouthpiece permits the horse to swallow more freely and distributes pressure evenly. The 02 mouthpiece is stainless steel and is the mildest Myler mouthpiece in terms of tongue pressure.
Because this mouthpiece does not rotate on to the tongue and the port is wide, it applies little to no tongue pressure, working primarily off the bars, lips, chin and poll. The curved bar rotates across the bars and lips down on the tongue applying pressure across the entire surface of the tongue.
The Myler Bitting System is a graduated system, meaning that as your horse learns and progresses through his training, you will change the way you communicate with him by re-bitting him periodically. Each Myler Bit is designed to use select pressure points for the best communication for that level. The unique curved bars of all Myler bits are ergonically designed to accommodate the natural anatomy of the horse's mouth, wrapping the bars and lips instead of pinching as the mouthpiece rotates onto the tongue.
