Champion Mondial Track
Ebay Auction
 
Here's the seller's narrative: Classic Dutch, hand made, Gazelle track racing frame set. This is a bit of a weird one. Not the standard Reynolds 531 tubing but a very, very early Italian Columbus (check the foil sticker in perfect condition). Serial number indicates 1974/76 but the Columbus decal would imply late sixties. Maybe / probably a custom made frame set for a pro rider. Frame is in excellent condition for it's age and looks beautiful. Chromed lugs and drop outs with no considerable rust. Double crowned fork. Very nice lug lining. Drilled out lightweight Italian made, Roto bottom bracket shell.
