I wheeled with a guy this weekend that had one on his Cruiser....
Thing climber like a Goat, but it was too tall in my opinion.
He said the rear leafs were upside-down 2 1/2 Rancho lift springs.
Wild. What is the advantage of this?

Can't tell what you mean by this pic....
I'm thinking you mean a full length spring runnin along the back and each end connected to the axle, with the center connected to a crossmember....is this correct???

a half elip. would be a standard leaf spring. half of a standard leaf spring upside down would be a 1/4 elip. you get the idea

I think "double 1/4s," or maybe "siamese 1/4s" would sound much more impressive. <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0">
