Myler Medium Shank Combination Forward Tilt Port Barrel
£215.95
Forward tilted version of the MB06 3/4″ port angled forward 45 degrees. Independent side movement.
Acts on the lips and bars and on the tongue with a strong rein
Suitable for a horse wanting to be polite but who can still spook or need refocussing. The 36 gives tongue relief when off or on very light contact but does act on the tongue with stronger contact.
Can also be ideal for horses with limited room for port (often Mountain & Moorland; Arabs; Hacks)
The stainless steel 3-ring combination bit is a hybrid of a ring bit, shank bit, and hackamore and uses five different pressure points to disperse rein pressure. Because the noseband and chin strap are connected through the purchase, when the reins are engaged, the horse first feels nose, chin and poll pressure before he feels the mouthpiece. The mouthpiece can slide 1″ before reaching a stop, where it will then engage and apply pressure. The purpose is to give the horse an opportunity to respond to the rider’s rein signals before applying mouthpiece pressure. The combination bit has Independent Swivel Cheek and the purchase is slightly angled away from the cheek to prevent rubbing. The noseband is flat leather with knotted cord on either side and the chin strap is synthetic to avoid stretching over time.
Degree of Leverage: The 3-ring combination bit offers three different rein positions: the big ring, middle ring and bottom ring.
Notes: If you ride with your rein attached to the big ring, it will function only as a direct rein snaffle and not apply nose, chin, poll pressure as a combination bit.
