I think this may have been answered already but here's the another: I'm pretty sure the Team Champion was introduced '74 to commemorate Ocaña's '73 TdF victory (Though we know he really rode a Speedwell Titanium painted and decaled to look like the rest of the Bic team Motobecanes). The '74 line also included, in order of decreasing price, Le Champion, Grand Record, Grand Jubilé (Note only one final "é", not "Jubilee")
