Motobecane CX?

I am getting an older motobecane at the local collective,and have looked around the internet to identify it with no luck.
It is a lugged steel frame with cantilever brakes.
It has no identifying decals, just a motobecane, made in France head-badge
I will get the serial # tomorrow, but does anyone know of a cantilever equipped motobecane?

Sounds like a standard touring bike.

Do you have the model name? IIRC, there are a few different touring bikes through the years offered by Moto.

Hence, my question.
I couldn't find any thing on the web featuring cantilevers.
