Transform your communication and eliminate resistance with the Myler 2-Ring Combination Bit, designed to provide the control you need without sacrificing your horse's comfort. This meticulously engineered tool uses a multi-point pressure system to encourage a soft, relaxed jaw and a willing response to even the lightest aids.

Built on the foundation of the Myler Bitting System, this bit features a sophisticated hybrid design that moves beyond traditional mouth-only pressure. By distributing signals across the nose, poll, jaw, tongue, and bars, it offers a "pre-signal" that allows your horse to respond before the mouthpiece fully engages, fostering a deeper level of trust and lateral suppleness through its patented Independent Side Movement.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Sweet Iron Mouthpiece: Naturally oxidizes to create a sweet taste that encourages salivation and jaw relaxation, leading to a softer and more receptive mouth.
• Low Port Comfort Snaffle: Expertly curved to provide significant tongue relief and even pressure distribution, helping the horse stay "on the bit" without discomfort.
• Multi-Point Pressure System: Distributes aids across five sensitive areas—the nose, poll, jaw, tongue, and bars—to minimize intensity on any single point for clearer, gentler communication.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): The patented swivel design allows you to give a clear cue on one side of the mouth without affecting the other, significantly improving precision and lateral suppleness.
• Myler Precision Sizing: Manufactured 1/8" larger than standard (e.g., a 5" bit measures 5 1/8") to ensure the "floating" mouthpiece has the necessary 1/8" to 1/4" gap on each side to function correctly.
• Copper Inlays: Strategically placed within the mouthpiece to further stimulate salivation and promote a relaxed, happy horse.
• Durable Stainless Steel: High-quality construction ensures long-lasting performance, superior strength, and rust resistance for years of regular use in any discipline.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure this combination bit is fitted correctly for my horse?
A: For safety and effectiveness, the leather/rawhide noseband must be fitted high on the nasal bone to avoid restricting the airway. Additionally, ensure a 1/8" to 1/4" gap exists on each side of the mouth so the mouthpiece can "float" and engage the pre-signal correctly.

Q: Is this bit appropriate for a horse that is strong but sensitive?
A: Absolutely. It is a premier choice for show jumping and eventing because it provides the leverage needed for control between jumps while the multi-point pressure prevents the horse from overreacting or tossing its head, which often happens with standard curb bits.

Q: Why does the mouthpiece look like it is rusting?
A: That is the Sweet Iron working! The mouthpiece is designed to oxidize, which creates the sweet taste horses love. This process is intentional and is the key to encouraging salivation and a relaxed jaw.
