Parelli Myler Cradle C1 MB04

Working together since September 2006.  Parelli USA and Myler Bits have designed a new Parelli Myler series of bits to complement the Parelli Natural Horsemanship Program. Parelli Myler Stainless Steel Cradle Cl Shank with Sweet Iron Low Port Comfort Snaffle (MB04) Copper Inlay Mouth. Level 2 The "braided tie" is used to keep the noseband from slipping by tying it to the browband of the headstall. Included with each cradle bit is an alternative stretch knotted curb strap.  Easily adjustable. Please Note:  There may be up to 6 week wait. Fitting Bits: 1. Remove drop or flash noseband. With Combinations also remove the Caveson. 2. The bit should sit so that only 1 soft wrinkle appears in the corners of the mouth. 3. There should be about 1/2cm each side of the bit (Not too snug) 4. Bits with Hooks – the reins and cheekpieces of the bridle should pass through the hooks on the outside of the ring so that the leather is not against the face. 5. Attaching curb chains – the curb chains for the bits with hooks sit higher than on a double bridle, Pelham etc. (they sit roughly where the caveson would be). The chain should be initially adjusted so that two fingers can be inserted in the space. Some horses work better if the chain is tighter than this. 6. Combination bits – The noseband of the combination should be adjusted tight enough so that it sits horizontal and will not drop down and affect the breathing. Care should be taken to check this from time to time as the leather will stretch. There should be enough slack so that the noseband will release when the rider gives the hand.
