Spokes like this one hold the front hub to the rim under tension, and each position around the wheel can call for a slightly different length depending on where it sits relative to the brake side or the valve hole, so the catalog breaks them out by figure and by model rather than selling one universal length. This one is cataloged as a straight spoke rather than one of the angled or bent patterns used elsewhere in the wheel.
The nipple is included with the spoke as sold, which is worth knowing if you are only replacing a few and trying to match what you already have rather than lacing a full wheel. If you are unsure this is the right length for your hub and rim combination, give us a call before ordering — spoke length is one of those things that is much easier to get right the first time than to sort out after the wheel is built.
