A spoke is just a thin length of stainless steel(usually). At one end there's a button to act as an anchor in the hub flange, and at the other end there's about 1/2" of thread for the spoke nipple. The nipple is needed to anchor the spoke to the rim and to allow for tensioning and truing the wheel.
