What tripod head and legs do you use for your RB67 in the field?

I no longer have Mamiya RB67....but if i did i'd use my Ries LF tripod head with the nice big platform....
 
I have a Monfrotto 410 head, with quick release. Love it. It's mounted on a HEAVY Gitzo, that I've been humping around since 1992. I'd love a carbon fibre version, but too darn expensive...
 
Either an Induro CT213 tripod with an Induro PHT1 3 way head, or a Gitzo Explorer (2531EX?) tripod and a Gitzo 2570QR off center ball head.

Andrew..... it's not the Gitzo. The Pentax 67 & Mamiya RB67 were my impetus to go LF

I use that Gitzo for LF and ULF. I swear I could jack up a tank, and change its treads with it.

& you could use the RB as a tire chock too
BTW i still use an aluminum Gitzo..... happily....
i don't carry enough insurance for a 4x5 or nice MF wobbling off a CF tripod in the wind...
