This bit features 5" HBT Shank cheeks and a Myler MB 32-3 triple barrel mullen mouth. This is a Myler level 2 bit.
The MB 32-3 is an innovative Myler alternative to the traditional mullen. It has three barrels, which turn the mouthpiece from the typical solid bar of a mullen into a flexible bar, which allows the horse to elevate his tongue and swallow more easily. When the reins are engaged, the mouthpiece becomes a solid bar like a traditional mullen, but with an exaggerated curve. This curved bar rotates across the bars and lips down onto the tongue, applying pressure across the entire surface of the tongue. The flexibility of the MB 32-3 makes it very forgiving and comforting when relaxed but offers the rider control when engaged. Sweet iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation.
The 5" HBT shank is stainless steel and has a slightly curved back, with a flat-top purchase and a rein ring. The mouthpiece has a fixed attachment. The HBT shank has the patented Independent Swivel Cheek, where the purchase, mouthpiece, and shank all move independently of each other. The purchase is slightly angled away from the cheek to avoid rubbing. It has an indirect (curb) rein action designed to be used with a curb strap that attaches to the purchase. The HBT shank uses the combination of the fixed cheek and fixed rein to apply pressure to the mouth, chin, and poll.
