I had a Herd ATV spreader and was happy with it. I didn't use it for roads. It spreads a pretty wide pattern with heavy seeds like alfalfa and might spread ice melter a bit too far. As far as the reliability it was great. I sold it and bought a pto driven Herd for my tractor as it was a larger model and held more seed.

Here is a lInk to Herd's site. They have been sold to Kasco and I don't know if the quality has changed.

I might buy another spreader and here is a link that picks a few ATV spreaders.

If you need it for only the spreading of ice melter and the road isn't too wide a drop spreader might be a way to go.
