Phillips Cycles

Phillips were another Raleigh owned marque. Carlton made some models for them through the 1960's.

The pictures below are of a Phillips built by Carlton circa 1962-1965. Model is believed to be an RC10X. Frame number is 11 7052. This appears to be a frame built to Flyer standard. Note the braze-on gear selector bosses, curved rear brake adjuster support, long-prong Flyer lugs, GB Hiduminium stem drilled for the front brake adjuster. All typical of a Carlton of this period.

The information and pictures were kindly supplied by Michael Swantak.

It identifies the colour as 'Tyrian Mauve/ Panelling as Catalogue Illustration'.

These notes are often found in Carlton built frames.
