I got 2 3 speed bikes at a yard sale today. The Ladies was made by Apollo Cycle Co. Birmingham England. The date on the SA hub is 10/63 . I can not find much info on the web for this company, did they make their own frames? The mens is badged as a Huffy made in England. I don't know who made the rear hub , is has a US patent number on it and what what looks like the numbers 333 and says 3 speed hub. Near the oil hole it has H36. Anyone know about when the Huffy was made and by who? Both bikes look like they came from the same factory and about the same time. The frames are identical other than being mens and ladies , forks, crank , sprocket and stem are the same. The fenders and chain guards look like Raleigh.
