C4 Dual Rear Springs?

Found them.
The outer attachment is different than I imagined might be the case.
It seemed possible that the purpose in part might be to create a
rising spring rate. In my mind's eye, I pictured a way the end
attachment might contribute to such a goal. However, the
pictures show that the ends are joined more in a more simple
manner - not one that I feel would contribute to creating RR.
The way the gap is maintained between the springs through the
centre section where they are fastened to the Bat Wing might
lead to a rising spring rate, though.

You might be surprised. If the bottom spring is softer and the spring ends can move independantly, I'd suspect that the softer spring handles most of the suspension travel on the street and for those large travels you'd then get into the 2nd spring when you really needed it. With a good set of shocks this would be interesting to try.
Are you referring to a "rising spring rate" as the same thing as a "dual rate spring"?. To me a "dual rate spring" is where two coils are stacked on top of one another and you get the combined spring rate until the bottom coil binds and then you get the single rate from the upper coil.
If not, can you describe "rising spring rate"?
The real trick would be to get this setup on the FRONT!
