Mavic X517 Rim Dating

Not too bad for an old guy who spent the 1990's mostly pennyless and drunk!

so did I...and some ( :shock: ), fortunately I had a catalogue to check earlier, otherwise I would have been further off than your guess

Absent from the 1997 catalogue but X517 appeared at the end of 1997 for the 1998 model year

So my memory was one year off! Not too bad for an old guy who spent the 1990's mostly pennyless and drunk!

you too?

1989 to 1996 is still a blur...

OK, so they are a little new for the build in Question (Litespeed Ti 91')...may still work though.....or am i too far away from the original era build...probably...hey-ho :roll:

Araya RM20's or some Mavic M6's or 7's are best choice unless you can find some Campagnolo rims.

217's up to '99 when I got my Heckler and had new wheels built for it, they were 517's then.
