On Mini's but they might not have been BMX hubs. There were 28 hole 20" rims tho, for sure.
I think Mark Webb is trying out 28 spoke wheels right now. Not sure its a good idea tho, not if you ride as big as he does.

If your looking for 1.5's or 1.75's I would think so but there should be a few 1 3/8's about  ???

You can get 28's in new school
