Default Tow rope reel

Our club here in the States is considering purchasing a tow rope reel for
our Pawnee. We have roads at both ends of our runway, requiring us to land
very long to prevent dragging rope/rings over the road. We read old posts
on this subject but nothing was very conclusive. Am most concerned about
safety, reliability and maintenance. Any comments from clubs and/or
commercial ops with these would be appreciated. Thanks.
