In 1952 Jang and Lien return to Melsbroek penniless and disillusioned. Jang is 39 years old and, after 24 years of hard work, he has nothing. But he is more driven than ever to build his own bicycle factory. He also knows that his customers haven’t forgotten his workmanship. And so that same year the PVBA Frans Huygens is established with Karel Dierickx (Charel Ziele) as the required 2nd partner (with one share). Jang also starts building his own bicycles and chooses the brand name Ludo, after the name of their only son.
