Spoke question.

[island schwinn]

Wonder if any of you would know which wheels would use 11-1/4" spokes.I have a good quantity of them,but have no clue what would use them.any help is appreciated.

I have in my notes that they can be used on a 26 inch 1 3/8 front wheel with a cross 3 pattern. They might be able to be used on something else with a different pattern, but I'm thinking 26 inch lightweight wheel with that length.

Schwinn front hub?

Schwinn front hub?

Yeah, most likely a Schwinn S5/S6 rim would use 11 1/8 for a cross 3 front hub. 26 x 1.375 (non Schwinn) rims could be a bit shorter since the rims are usually smaller in diameter.
