For Western Disciplines.
 The
late Frank Evans, inventor of Mikmar Bits and founder of the
company, designed the Mikmar Training Bit in 1953. It is well-known
for its unique lightweight design, versatility, and excellent
results, despite its curious first impression. Frank Evans
said that, "because of the way this bit works, you are
able to protect a horse's mouth and at the same time get desired
results. It sends a clearer signal to the horse, allowing
the rider to use a softer hand." The Mikmar Training
Bit operates through leverage, with the addition of nose pressure.
As the rider applies pressure to the
reins, this  unique
design disperses pressure to the nose, mouth (bars and tongue),
chin and poll areas, instead of to only one focused area.
It is to be used with a leather curb strap or a curb chain.
The wide, flat Mikmar mouthpiece incorporates a copper roller
stimulating saliva production and keeping a nervous or “busy-mouthed”
horse pacified. Also, it discourages the horse from putting
its tongue over the bit. The Mikmar Training Bit is a useful
tool for all disciplines of western riding. It is wonderful
for the transition from the snaffle bit to a solid leverage
bit and for developing vertical flexion and proper carriage.

The Mikmar Curved Low Port Mouthpiece offers the same design
as the standard mouthpiece but provides tongue relief, as the

pressure.
