4 1/2 in Myler H. Bit Dee Without Hooks Medium Wide Ported Barrel –

Discover precise, tongue-relief communication with the 4 1/2 in Myler H. Bit Dee Without Hooks – a stainless steel mouthpiece designed for horses that respond best to subtle tongue pressure and clear, direct cues. With a fixed, D-shaped cheek, this bit delivers dependable signal while prioritizing rider influence from the leg and seat.

• Mouthpiece Type: Stainless steel Dee without hooks with a fixed, D-shaped cheek for stable contact and direct signaling.
• Port Design: Medium Wide Port (MB 33) provides generous tongue space, allowing the tongue to pass under the bit and reducing overall tongue pressure.
• Tongue Pressure Level: MB 33 is the mildest Myler mouthpiece in terms of tongue pressure, promoting calm acceptance and steady responses.
• Port Height: Port height of 1.5 inches minimizes palate pressure while delivering effective communication through the lips and bars.
• Signal & Contact: Because the port is wide and the mouthpiece does not rotate on the tongue, it applies little tongue pressure and relies on the lips and bars for guidance.
• Cheek Style: The Dee Without Hooks keeps the mouthpiece from draping the tongue, offering a more direct signal and reducing pinch risk compared to rotating designs.
• Size & Fit: 4 1/2" mouthpiece length with a 3" pony Dee ring on the 4 1/2" mouthpiece (Dee ring sizing varies by mouthpiece length).
• Action: Direct action delivers immediate, clear cues without unnecessary rotation or movement.
• Material: Built from durable stainless steel for long-lasting performance and consistent feel.
• Notes & Variants: For slightly more tongue pressure, consider MB 43LP or MB 43MP; for the same tongue relief with no independent side movement, MB 16 (Western only); for the same relief with a touch of collapse, MB 05; for more generous tongue relief, MB 16Pb. If you need a more versatile cheek, explore English Dee with Hooks or Eggbutt with Hooks.

The MB 33 mouthpiece is ideal for horses that thrive on consistent, leg- and seat-driven work. The design supports a calm mouth and clear rider intent, making it suitable for disciplines that value light touch and responsive transitions. Its fixed Dee cheek provides a direct, dependable signal without the complication of a loose ring, helping riders establish and maintain soft, effective contact across schooling, groundwork, and long rides. When your horse is ready for a slight adjustment in tongue pressure, you can smoothly transition to related models without changing the cheek style, preserving your established communication and training rhythm.
