Myler Stainless Steel Eggbutt with Hooks, MB 04 Low Port Comfort Snaffle, Level 2

The MB 04 is comparable to the MB 02 as it swivels on the tongue and generates tongue pressure, but it includes a comparatively small (¼") port to provide tongue relief to the horse. This port permits the horse to swallow and move his tongue when he is in motion and comfortable, thus functioning as an incentive or reward. This mouthpiece is curved and wraps around the bars and lips instead of squeezing them.

  • Independent Side Movement
  • Stainless Steel Mouthpiece
  • Curved mouthpiece does not pinch lips and bars
  • Copper Inlay
  • NOT Dressage Legal

Notes: The MB 04 provides an excellent transition from Level One to Level Two. It is suitable for a wide range of horses including green horses, experienced horses entering the Myler System, horses that have been ridden exclusively in a single-jointed mouthpiece, or horses that have not been ridden for a while needing re-schooling.

The addition of the hooks to the cheek make this a more versatile version of the eggbutt without hooks. Attaching the headstall to the top hook holds the bit in the correct position instead of allowing it to slide around the bridle cheeks. Attaching the reins to the rein hooks allows the rider to lift the cheek and use the Independent Side Movement™ of the mouthpiece (if available). Using the hooks does not add leverage but allows the rider to transition from a direct rein action to indirect action without changing the bit. Adding a curb strap (using a Myler curb strap kit) incorporates curb pressure. Curb pressure is recommended for ported mouthpieces.

The small loop behind the top slot accommodates a curb strap (attach with two curb hooks). Both the top bridle slot and bottom rein slot will fit standard ⅝" bridle leather.

Size: 3 ½" rounded ring

Action: Direct rein action when rein hook is not used. Indirect rein action when rein is fixed on rein hook.

Discipline: English or Western

Degree of Leverage: Little to no leverage when the hooks are used.
