No help with the rest. Hell, I'm using a Truvativ Boxguide I picked up for $38 shipped on e-bay, with a Blackspire roller on the bottom vs. the stock number. Works great, and I've had no dropped chains with it on the Devinci.
Thanks for weighing in, scrub. I thought I remember you having some Blackspire stuff. I've been reading some issues elsewhere about upper slider plastic prone to cracking; but you never know whether stuff like that is product fault or over-torquing fasteners.
