Myler Stainless Steel 7" Flat Shank, MB 01 Comfort Snaffle with Narrow Barrel, Level 1 The MB 01 is the Myler alternative to the traditional single-jointed mouthpiece commonly used in snaffle bits. The MB 01 rotates onto the tongue to apply concentrated tongue pressure at the center barrel, but because the mouthpiece is curved, it wraps around the bars and lips instead of pinching. The barrel in the center applies approximately the same pressure on the tongue as a traditional single-jointed mouthpiece. However, the barrel distributes the pressure more kindly and allows for each side of the bit to be used independently. Sweet iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation. Independent Side Movement™ Sweet Iron mouthpiece Curved mouthpiece does not pinch lips and bars Copper Inlay Notes: The mouthpiece is similar to the MB 02, but the center barrel of the MB 01 is narrower, which concentrates pressure on the center of the tongue more than the MB 02. For more tongue relief, step up to the MB 04. The 7" Flat Shank is stainless steel and curved slightly back towards the horse, with a flat-top purchase and a rein ring. The mouthpiece has a fixed attachment. The Flat 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 flat shank uses the combination of the fixed cheek and fixed rein to apply pressure to the mouth, chin, and poll.

"This is a thin, smooth snaffle so you will not sore the corners of you horse’s mouth up, and you will not get that dull feel that you sometimes get with a bigger mouthpiece."  - Brittany Pozzi

Upon learning to ride correctly in a snaffle bit, the Reinsman Stoney Crescent Moon is the best bit on the market for a two—or three-year-old horse in training that is ready to step up. The shape of the shanks and the small gag work together to provide a seamless transition for a young horse just beginning to adjust to the feel of leverage in the training process. The 437 is ideal for a stronger horse that needs the added bite of a twisted wire mouthpiece.

This bit gives you more flex and bend than the original lifter. I love the short shank for starting colts and the long shank for running the more solid horse. It comes in all four mouth pieces giving you lots of options. Brittany PozziNOTE: This bit will rust when exposed to moisture. This creates a sweet taste in the horses mouth and promotes salivation.
