Spoke (8/10G x 4 25/32 in. 78°) c/w nipple
Front wheel spoke, 8/10G x 4 25/32 in. with 78 degree bend, supplied with nipple.
This is a front wheel spoke, listed at 8/10G by 4 25/32 in. with a 78 degree bend, and it comes complete with its nipple. It shows up across front wheel figures for the T100T and T100R, as well as both an earlier and later type front wheel listing, so Triumph used more than one spoke pattern over the years this part covers in the catalog.

A spoke like this ties the hub to the rim and carries the load and tension that keeps the wheel true. Getting the gauge, length, and bend angle right matters more than it looks - a spoke that's even slightly off in any of those three numbers will throw the lacing pattern off or leave you short when you get to truing the wheel.
The part later carries forward under 37-1708S, so if you're working from a newer parts list and it doesn't show 37-1708, that's the same physical spoke under its updated number. Given the number of different front wheel figures this one appears in, it's worth double-checking your hub and rim combination before you order a full set.
