5.5″ Myler Forward Tilt MBL Short Shank Curb

This Myler MBL Short Shank curb is in hardly used condition! Offers a 5.5″ mouth with Mullen Forward Told Ported Barrel (MB 36) which offers ample tongue relief with limited correction. Level 2-3 bit. Short shank at just 5.5″. Sweet iron mouth that will rust with time and use. This one has been used so little, there’s no rust at all. Great, hardly used bit for a fraction of its new price!

The MB 36 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 1″ high and tilted forward at a 45º angle, allowing just enough room for the horse’s tongue to elevate slightly and swallow but not high enough for palate pressure. When the reins are engaged, the MB 36 applies pressure primarily to the bars and lip but also applies tongue pressure because of the forward tilt. Sweet iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation.
