The Story
The Myler Flat Shank Bit W/ Correctional Low Port features an MB 27PB mouthpiece. The MB 27PB is a Myler correctional mouthpiece, which is a ported mouthpiece that collapses onto the outer lip and bars, and rotates on to the tongue. The port although narrow and somewhat low, allows room for the horse’s tongue to pass under the bit. When the reins are engaged and the mouthpiece rotates on to the tongue, it applies two concentrated points of pressure on the tongue for quick control. Because this port is only 1 ¼" high, it will apply little to no palate pressure. Sweet iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation. 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 which 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. Indirect action with moderate leverage. Myler Level 2 to 3.
