not sure what to do with it but it seems cheap, 531 and an unusual design / model

wow, nice lugs

Looks very cool, with the fins and the low seatstays. The fork seems to be from a slightly later (goldline) era though.

hmm i noticed that they look different to the catalogue model

an old photo of a purposeful looking gazelle track bike at herne hill ... good friday meeting 2008 or 9 i believe

Nice frame but that wheelset really doesn't do it any favours.

yeah more purposeful than beautiful

swap out for nice campy record and we're golden

Might there be any intrest in a NOS Gazelle Team TVM frame & straight forks? Size 60, new in the original box. Top notch frame in Reynolds steel, never ever used. Original team frame, that come's straight from the Gazelle headquarters...

team colours, pretty pristine, double crown fork, unusual tubing, campy record going cheap currently

the herd

although currently not even one is rideable ! a combination of spring cleaning / teardowns and ongoing projects

sadly the newest arrival has been savaged by a top predator and may not live to see the future
the criterium has been crashed and the guy is refunding my money ... may get the main tubes replaced, top and down !

^very nice herd

Really really want-

That would explain the fork being mismatched.

Who did I see riding in southwark area on a lovely looking immaculate black gazelle with black mudguards?

Lovely collection Dicki, may I ask which is your favourite? Mine would of have to been my Jubilee, kicking myself now for selling :-)

Dicki 5 - 3 Jeez was the score at 8am this morning. We're now 5 - 5.

Jealous. That's lovely. What are your plans for the TVM?

A beautiful bike and a beautiful view across the dunes, always rewarding going up those stairs ;)

Yes, the dunes between The Hague and Katwijk are great. Beautiful views, nice paved roads and if it's quiet like last friday the walking paths provide gravel and crushed shell surfaces and some some great elevations. Didn't venture onto the beach though. I don't live that near, but it's one of my favourite cycling areas. The route through the green heart of Holland to get there is pretty nice too.
