Myler Eggbutt no Hooks Mullen Low Ported Barrel MB 06-14mm

This bit features traditional Eggbutt cheeks with a 14mm MB 06 low port mouth. This is a Myler level 2-3 bit. USEF 2012 and FEI 2016 Dressage Legal. Consult the rulebook for more information.

The MB 06 is a Myler alternative to the traditional mullen, but it has a wide low port that allows the tongue to pass under it comfortably. The port is " high, just enough to allow the horses tongue to elevate slightly and swallow, but not high enough for palate pressure. When the reins are engaged, the 06 applies pressure primarily to the bars and lips. Mouthpiece is 14mm at the cheek.

This mouthpiece is a step up in tongue relief from Level 2, but because the port is low, it does not offer as much tongue relief as other Level 2-3 mouthpieces with slightly higher ports because the tongue is still somewhat restricted. The MB 36 mouthpiece will offer more tongue relief than the MB 06 when the reins are relaxed, but more tongue pressure when the reins are engaged. For more overall tongue relief, see MB 43LP. An eggbutt is a traditional cheek style which keeps the mouthpiece from draping on the tongue, providing a more direct signal than the loose ring. The straight side of eggbutt will not pull through the mouth and does not pinch.
