Thick Spoked Rims

[eeapo]

Tomorrow I will be going to see a bike not sure what brand name it is. As per the current owner the spokes are 3/16 inch in diameter, has anyone here seen spokes that thick. Or maybe what bike used them if I purchase it I will post some pic's.
Thank you.

Likely he measured them to be 3/32 inch
10 or 12 gauge maybe

The hub flanges would have to be massive to accommodate the collective dimension of spokes that huge!
