Lovely albeit unexciting Gazelle Champion Mondial. Not too bad a base to work from just filthy, really filthy! Clean and service, replaced tyres, tape, brake levers, saddle and seatpost and jobs a good 'un. Got a little stuck on what brake levers to use but thought that the Exage with the plastic inserts removed made for an interesting, complimentary alternative to the hard to source 600EX.
Came up lovely, that blue is gorgeous and these 531 Gazelles ride like a dream.
