Description
The MB 43LP does not rotate onto the tongue but instead sits solidly across the bars and lips of the horse’s mouth. The port is narrower than a Level 3 mouthpiece, but still offers room for the horse’s tongue to pass under the bit. Because the port is narrow, when the reins are engaged, the horse will feel a slight pressure on the outside edges of the tongue — a gentle reminder rather than a strong reprimand. The port on this mouthpiece is only 1 ¼" high, so it will apply little to no palate pressure. It is the mildest of the Level 2-3 mouthpieces in terms of tongue pressure, just one step below a Level 3 mouthpiece. Sweet iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation.

Notes: For the same amount of tongue pressure in a shank bit, see the B2 Shank with MB 43LP. For more tongue relief and a level 3 bit, see the C3 Cradle with MB 33.
The Parelli Cradle bit is a modified version of a Myler Combination Bit. The cradle is a hybrid of a ring bit, shank bit, and hackamore. A purchase ring with specially designed connectors for the noseband and chin strap sits atop a large center ring where the mouthpiece is attached. Unlike the other Myler combination bits, the rein attachment is built into the ring where the mouthpiece is attached. The noseband is a flat braided nylon cord. The chin strap is knotted. The cradle bit has the Independent Swivel Cheek.
