Yes Sir, there is a 70mm back for RB (and RZ by means of a 
G-adaptor). This will be my solution for medium format HIE as well, I 
just bought my second 70mm RB back recently. Although I still have no 
other Mamiya equipment, I figured that loading this contraption in a 
changing bag would border on sadomasochism, so two backs seems the 
best way to solve this problem in the field. 
I have only seen Pro-S backs thusfar (with the interlocks preventing 
double-exposure and idle-transport), so one would assume that there 
were no 70mm backs in the non-S era before. 

Btw, I have an overview of 70mm backs and cameras on my homepage,
URL see in the footer below.
