MB-04 HBT, Myler Bit

$165.95

1 review
  • This bit has a low port—for mild tongue relief—and a tall purchase/short shank; so while it offers leverage, it is very mild.
  • This is an excellent transitional bit from snaffle to curb and the horse will hardly notice any difference.
  • Great for the intermediate horse that may be ridden one-handed on occasion but would otherwise go in a snaffle.
  • 89-20044 Stainless Steel 5″ HBT Shank with Sweet Iron low port mouthpiece with copper inlay (MB 04, Level 2) Sweet Iron naturally oxidizes or rusts.
  • Harmless to horses, it has a sweet taste and promotes salivation.

    My new horse was tossing her head and resisting the bit until I put her in this. She is MUCH happier (and subsequently, so am I).

    • This bit has a low, wider port and does not collapse as much as the 04 mouthpiece, giving a bit more tongue relief to the horse.
    • The shanks rotate independently, allowing you to lift the shoulders and ride two-handed.
    • The more rigid mouthpiece is a good transitional bit to the more traditional full curb bridle and is good for a horse that is at the advanced-intermediate level.
    • The HBT offers mild leverage and the non-collapsing mouthpiece makes this bit very mild.
    • 89-20065 Stainless Steel 5″ HBT Shank with 5″ Sweet Iron mullen barrel low port mouthpiece,with copper inlay, (MB 06, Level 2-3) Sweet Iron naturally oxidizes or rusts.
    • Harmless to horses, it has a sweet taste and promotes salivation.

    • This mouthpiece has good tongue relief (in the form of a low port and non-collapsing design) but the port is tilted forward so that the horse must break at the poll slightly to find the tongue relief.
    • I like to use this bit for fairly well-trained horses that are not “rounding up” like they should (breaking at the poll or coming into a more collected frame), either because the horse is reluctant or the rider is not insistent.
    • The HBT shank offers mild leverage and can be ridden one-handed or two.
    • 89-20364 Stainless Steel 5″ HBT Shank with Sweet Iron Forward Tilt Ported Barrel mouthpiece with copper inlay, (MB 36, Level 2-3).
    • Mouthpiece is polished sweet iron which naturally oxidizes or rusts.
    • Harmless to horses, it has a sweet taste and promotes salivation.

    • This is my favorite Myler snaffle.
    • It is jointed but has three pieces to prevent the mouthpiece from collapsing and pinching and it has a very low port which offers some relief of pressure from the tongue (pressure on the tongue is what horses hate most about bits).
    • I would use this for very green horses or for horses that are being ridden in a regular snaffle and are needing more comfort in their mouths.
