Anyone used "Roadstercycle" reverse boxes?

The constant clattering from my Quaife box is annoying me of late so I had been thinking of going to an MNR but from what I have read they are not available anymore. So my other options are Nova, Joy Rider, Elite Racing and these units. Has anyone had any experience with any of these brands?

I just got one. In the process of getting drive shafts made for it. One note I will say is you need make sure to order it with the splined shafts.

The first time I order it with the Key setup and my driveshaft company told me eventually I would shear the key. I sent it back and they replaced it with the splines with really no big fuss, great set of guys.

The design looks and feels pretty solid.

I expect to do a trial run in about 3 weeks, depends really on when I get the shafts back.

Anyone know if the MNR reverse boxes are still available?

How did you go with the Roadstercycle box? Have you had a chance to test it out yet?

Nope, have not had the time, and still waiting on the drive shafts shop.
