Wheel component for a bicycle

A wheel component for bicycles, comprising:

• a spoke system having two interacting connecting elements, namely having a connecting element loaded in tension during operation and designed as a spoke, and having at least one connecting element designed as a coupling element;
• wherein the spoke extends in the axial direction and comprises a center piece and two end pieces in order to detatchably connect the spoke to a hub or to a rim by means of the end pieces;
• wherein the two connecting elements, namely the coupling element and the spoke, have interacting threads in order to connect the spoke and the coupling element to one another, wherein one of the threads is designed as an inner thread and one of the threads is designed as an outer thread;
• in the assembled state, a radial depth of engagement of the two threads screwed to one another increases across at least one part of an axial threaded length, and in the assembled state, the radial depth of engagement increases by at least 25% across the threaded length.
