I have a couple of MB140/S and they work perfect for me. I used it with
IB/E ( old model with aluminuim front), but I'm convinced it should work
nice with FBS also.

I didn't know there is a new model and I had to check photos of the MB
200/S. It seems it has more robust part for drill rotation, but I never
found good use for that anyway.

On those occasion or two that I did need it, MB 140/S was more than
adequate. 140/S is nice, smooth and really precise. All eventual
tolerances can be eliminated with assigned screws, so that, when
tightened properly, it has no discernible play.

Can't tell you anything about 200/S.
