No, that's "Raleigh type" Phillips type uses a conventional anchor bolt.

We've got a few Genuine Raleigh ones in stock. They come in three lengths: Front, Gent's, Lady's; 3 colors, sorry colours: Silver/gray, white, black.

We don't have all of the permutations.

We also have bolt-on cable ends that let you use conventional cables, $3.95 each.
