  • **Gazelle 731 OS Champion Mondiale - 55.5cm ST CTC - Frameset SOLD

    Finally, this one has always been a little small for me, but I made it work because of the stunning paint job, with lots of seatpost, a long stem and riding a bit low and long… Top tube is also 55.5 CTC. Great tubing, retired before its time. Again a few chips, but most covered over by previous owner, but not so many as to detract from the paint. If it were larger, I’d definitely keep it.

    HS - Stronglight Delta (the nice one with needle bearings)
    DT Shifters - Simplex Retrofriction
    Chainset, Front and Rear Mechs - Campagnolo Chorus
    BB - Campagnolo Chorus
    Levers - Campagnolo, Chorus I think
    Brakes - Campagnolo Daytona
    Bars - 3ttt Forma
    Stem - Cinelli Pinochio
    Seatpost - Genetic
    Saddle - Essax something or other, superlight and rideable
    Bar tape - Fizik
    Wheels - not selling those in the photos I’m afraid, so can either do the Campag Records above for a bit of Neo-retro, or I have a set of Campag Croce D’Aune laced to 32/32 Mavic CD2 rims (bombproof tubulars) that look great with this. Freewheel setup obvs. I don’t think I have spare tan wall tubs, so would have to give you ‘get you home’ tubs and then source your own. Shout if desperate though and I’ll see what’s knocking about
    No pedals (again, shout if you need some)

    Another full disclosure… The rear derailleur hanger was stripped when I bought this, so it’s been drilled out and I use a Dropout saver. The practical effect, is either you need to avoid the bottom cog, or use a 1-2mm spacer inside the dropout, so that the chain clears the lip of the frame saver. May not be an issue with higher tooth small cogs.

    Split price:
    Frameset, headset - GONE
    Groupset - moved to components classifieds
