Myler HBT Shank Bit W/ Wide Barrel - Level 1

The Myler HBT Shank Bit W/ Wide Barrel features the MB 02 sweet iron mouthpiece, which oxidizes and encourages salivation. The MB 02 mouthpiece is the Myler alternative to the traditional French link or lozenge mouthpiece commonly used in snaffle bits. The MB 02 rotates onto the tongue, applying tongue pressure, 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 three-piece mouthpiece, however, the barrel distributes the pressure more kindly and creates Independent Side Movement™. The 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 style, while the 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.
