Morphology

spoked = spoke (transparent) = spoke + ed

Regular adjectival formation from the noun 'spoke' meaning 'rod of a wheel', so the meaning 'having spokes' is directly inferable.

Etymology

Spoked comes from the noun spoke, which originally meant a small 'stick' or 'rod' used to join the center of a wheel to its rim. So spoked means 'having' those sticks radiating from the center, as in a bicycle or old wagon wheel.
