Equipping this 1982 Mondia cyclocross frame on shown on CR:

The frame came to me via Larry Meyers, via Matt Gorski? via Eric Elman?

Building with circa 1979 Nuovo Record components, Weinmann cantilevers (rebranded Mafac's I believe), Cinelli bar/stem, Turbo Speciale saddle.

Question for the list - is there a typical gearing for cyclocross? Chainring size? Gear range?
