Hi: I really like the looks of Windsor bikes and wanted to learn a lot more about them than some links on the internet will allow me to. I notice that there was an Italian influenece on the Mexican production and heard about the Eddie Merkx controversy and everything but the one thing that I am most curious about right now is that there seems to be no consistency in their head badges whatsoever. Is the head badge on these bikes any sign of their quality? For instance the word "Windsor" printed vertically down the head tube versus just the initial "W" mean anything? Is that what they did to seperate the identification between the Pro and Competition from the lower end models? Also I am in dier need of a serial number log somewhere to help more in identification of these bikes. Thanks
