Do you guys in the UK know Pro Winner?
It's a Belgian brand and very popular in France.
What about in the UK?
First models were a looptail.
BTW I'm looking for a 20" PW looptail if anyone has one.....

Piet Dejonckheere ( younger brother of Jan) told me he had such frame in 1985-86.
But personally I think it's a 1986-87 model.
