General Information
Early example of Motobecane's top model, the Champion Team, alternately referred to as the Team Champion. Component details suggest this example is from the 1973 year, including no date code crank arms, Pat '72 rear derailleur and external clamp nut Cinelli 1A stem with patent date. Although dating a bike by its components is generally not conclusive, these clues and info from original owner suggest this example was produced in 1973. Pics of bike as shown in riding mode, with non-original saddle, brake levers and wheel set.
