My '86 Gazelle Champion Mondial. Rather than go with a period correct restoration, I put a 10-speed Campy group on it. I've never raced it, but I do occasionally ride it on the River Ride, which is a race-training ride. The River Ride is flat, on crappy pavement, and usually features a wicked crosswind. With the 531c frame and 32-spoke, box section wheels, this bike is probably the perfect bike for that ride.
