| Hello Victor, Sorry but the records for such makes as Phillips are poor. A photograph would be a great help in trying to date the bicycle. Matthew - here to help. by: 82.28.2.205 |
| Yes, we need a picture of the bike. The serial numbers do us no good we have not been given or left the deciphering codes. Phillips, was huge! made a lot of wide variety of bicycles, out of Birmingham, England until a 1961 merger with Raleigh and then Phillip's 3 factories were closed and production shifted to Nottingham, England where it continued for a while. What size wheels ? what color? mens or ladies frame? cable or rod brakes? a lot of folks here collect and have and love Phillips bikes we are Phillips historians ,here and we know Phillips and the individual parts like the hubs very well. by: 69.153.86.42 |
| I just got a Philips bike myself and need a bit of help finding some information on it. It is a 26 inch, sort of a tan/gold color, cable brakes, men's frame, Stumy Archer rear 3 speed hub, twist grip shifter, No idea of age. Looks to be in great condition though. Just want to get an idea of what year it is and what it is worth. ANY help or information would be great. E-mail me at Outskirtscustoms@yahoo.com by: 98.223.28.230 |
