Premium Stainless Steel: Constructed from high-quality, rust-resistant materials for exceptional durability and long-lasting performance in daily training.Frequently Asked Questions:Q: How do I ensure I choose the correct size for my horse?A: Myler bits are intentionally manufactured to run 1/8" to 1/4" wider than standard bits. For an ideal fit, you should see approximately 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece on both sides of the horse's mouth. If your horse is typically between sizes, we recommend staying with the smaller size to prevent excessive sliding.Q: Is this bit suitable for a horse that is fussy in the contact?A: Yes! The Mullen Low Port Barrel is specifically designed for horses that dislike the tongue pressure of a jointed snaffle. By distributing pressure evenly and allowing the horse to swallow easily, it encourages a quiet, relaxed jaw and improved focus on your aids.Q: Can I use this bit in the dressage show ring?A: Absolutely. This specific Myler Eggbutt (MB 06) without slots or hooks is USEF and FEI dressage legal. It is the perfect choice for riders who want Myler’s technical benefits while staying fully compliant with competition equipment rules.Item Number/SKU: 89-29377
