Hello all,

Can anyone tell what gauge or spoke diameter was originally used on an early 20's interchangeable wheel (see picture) from a 3,5 hp leaf spring or model 7? And, just out of interest, is there a difference with the last early 30's model 7's?

The picture shows a wheel with spokes 4 times crossed. Was it always 4 times crossed with this type of wheel?

Does anyone know what was the original rim width? And was that always the same for these models or did it change over time?

In older posts I read that the wheel was paint dipped after lacing so nipples should be black, thanks for the tip.

Thanks! Kind regards Winold
