Microline V - smaller
Proline V = bigger

Not a great deal difference in height , it's all about width !  :shocked: :LolLolLolLol:

The Prolines got wider over the years , I've got some 28 inches wide  ;)

And in a 1984 PL20 test they list them as 27 and a quarter inches .

Not wanting to confuse anyone !  :LolLolLolLol:

Cool bars whatever size  :daumenhoch:

Martin , yes I know why you're sniffin'  ;)

Matt, does your 28" set have "redline" etched into them on the right hand side an inch or so under the crossbar?

pictures speak a thousand words  ;)

first are the micros. the etching is on the L/H side just under the crossbar.






second are the prolines, later to the micros as they have a different font etched an inch or so on the R/H side under the crossbar





and last are the 28" bars but i'm not sure that they are redline as there is no etching. these may well be "procraft".
