Frequently Asked Questions:Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for this loose ring bit?A: To prevent pinching and ensure proper function, follow the "Myler Gap" rule: you should see 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece on each side of the horse's lips. This extra clearance is essential for the loose ring to rotate freely without catching the skin.Q: Is the Myler MB 02 suitable for a horse that is heavy in the hand?A: Yes! The loose ring design is specifically preferred for horses that tend to lean or "fix" on the bit, as the constant movement of the rings makes it difficult for the horse to take a heavy hold, promoting a lighter, more responsive feel.Item Number/SKU: 89-28138
