Unlock a new level of softness and refined communication with a bit designed to reward your finished horse's responsiveness. The Myler MB 05 provides unparalleled tongue relief, turning every cue into a clear, comfortable conversation that fosters a harmonious partnership.

Engineered specifically for the advanced Level 3 horse, the MB 05 Comfort Snaffle represents the pinnacle of Myler’s ergonomic design. By utilizing a curved mouthpiece that anatomically follows the contours of the mouth, this bit eliminates the "nutcracker" action of traditional snaffles, replacing it with a stable, sweet-tasting interface that encourages a relaxed jaw and a focused, willing athlete.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Level 3 Tongue Relief: Features a medium-wide, low port (approximately 1” to 1 ¼” high) that offers maximum room for the tongue while focusing light, refined pressure on the bars and lips.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): The innovative design allows each side of the bit to move independently, enabling precise lateral signals and preventing the bit from pinching the cheeks or collapsing.
• Sweet Iron Mouthpiece: Crafted from polished sweet iron that naturally oxidizes to create a sweet taste, which is scientifically proven to increase salivation and bit acceptance.
• Copper Inlay Technology: Integrated thin copper strips on the bars further stimulate moisture in the mouth, ensuring your horse remains soft, supple, and responsive through the jaw.
• Anatomical Curve: The mouthpiece is designed with a gentle "U" shape to prevent palate pressure and ensure the bit wraps comfortably around the bars without pinching the lips.
• Optimized for Finished Horses: Specifically intended for advanced horses that are already responsive to leg and seat cues and require the highest degree of tongue relief for nuanced communication.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for the Myler Comfort Snaffle?
A: Follow the "1/8 Rule"—you should have approximately 1/8" to 1/4" of space on either side of the mouth. This prevents the curved bars from pinching the lips while ensuring the port remains perfectly centered for maximum comfort.

Q: My bit is starting to change color and rust; is this a defect?
A: Not at all! The sweet iron is designed to oxidize (rust) when exposed to moisture, which creates the sweet taste horses love. Simply wipe the bit down after each ride to maintain the surface and preserve its beneficial properties.

Q: Is the Myler MB 05 legal for all riding disciplines?
A: While the MB 05 is a favorite for Western, trail, and ranch work, it is generally not dressage legal in most associations due to the port and independent side movement features. Always check your specific association's rulebook.
