Purchased some NOS, brand-old in original box Phil hubs. They are possibly first generation. Spacing is 120mm for 5 speed rear freewheel, front 100mm.

I also bought a set of Rigida 1319 rims, beautiful polished alloy, double wall.

Considering having a wheelset built with them, but might eventually trade or sell. Any idea of worth of the two items? I'm better at guesstimating complete bikes and am not sure on these.

Thanks folks!

If you want to sell, don't build up the wheelset. For NOS stuff like that (and even used) you're far better off selling the bare hubs and bare rims separate.

No idea on value, but I do know Phil stuff new is extraordinarily expensive. I would expect nothing less from old NOS parts. If you just bought them, you probably have a good idea on value based on what you paid.
