What years did Mavic make Citron coloured rims?

[Tazio]

Any ideas? I fancy a set for something I have planned as I reckon they should be a good match for the forks I have planned, the yellowy green Bombers from 1998.

X517 - early 2000ish?

I'm sure they went back earlier - 217 for example, so mid 90's onwards perhaps?

I bought my X517 Citrons in late 98, s'all I know!

I don't think there was a 217 citron. Sunset and TIB (bronze) but not yellow.

The Mombat MAVIC timeline says '98 and '99 for the X517 citron, and '98 - 2000 for the X317 Disc, which sounds about right:

Excellent, just need to find a pair of the buggers now.

Rado has a pair of wheels but I think he's quite attached to them, you never know though!

Yep, I spotted them at Baltic Bawbags.

I'm not entirely convinced threatening him with a chinese burn would change his mind.

Though 1998 website shows X517 in Silver, Orange, CD and CD Ceramic only

Not until 1999 is the website changed from the Orange to the Citron (file name of the image not shown and the Orange confirms this.
