Gazelle Champion Mondial grades

Hello all,
I have been trying to Google and search this forum on the Gazelle Champion Mondial on how to differentiate the grades and what are the differences.

Probably have been posted before but not much info and some digging led to dead links.

Thanks in advance
Johnny

Everything you'll ever want to know about the Champion Mondial can be found here, I think:

Here ya go.... Answers to all (or most) of your questions:

https://www.gazellechampionmondial.nl/index.html

velobase.com - GREAT WEBSITE but one caveat, most entries are anecdotal so there can be differences of opinions on technical details.

https://tinyurl.com/yd4voq4q

NOTE: Because of a trade mark or copyright issue Gazelle Champion Mondial bikes sold in Germany were labeled as Gazelle Champion only.




I have 2 NOS Gazelle frames that have been sitting in my stash for over 10 years:

A 1973 Champion Mondial "A-Frame"



My 1994 Champion Mondial "AB-Frame" made of Reynolds 531C "Competition" tubing. It has a racing team number tab with a wingnut under the top tube.
