Details
This is a vintage Gazelle Champion Mondial tourist style road bicycle. This bike has stem mounted shifters and a mustache style tourist handlebar. Rider position gets a little higher with a bit more control. Goes well with the Bluemel fenders...
The frame is a 531 tubeset, lugged, with Campagnolo dropouts front and rear. The lug work is nice, with longer points and is outlined in black. The top of the seatstays slightly wrap around the top front of the seatlug. Nice touch.
Campagnolo cable housing clamps are used on the top tube - nice and shiny.
We are pretty sure that this bike was all campy - not sure why or when the parts were changed.
This is the A frame, with eyelets and the flat fork crown.

Gazelle did make a tourist style bicycle, called the lords, but this was one had a drop bar and a full campy kit at one time.
Includes Bluemels Club Special fenders in black, a rear rack, generator (missing rear light), and a nice bell.
