Spokes, generally, have a "rolled" thread rather than a cut thread. Meaning that the material is push up to make the thread rather than cut into the spoke material. You can tell if the threads have a larger diameter than the spoke itself. Rolled threads are extremely strong but I think you would have a hard time finding a clevis that would accept that kind of thread.
