The V3's spring rate is not listed as it is a progressive spring.
Here is a quote from KW's web site in the FAQ section Why doesn’t KW provide a rating on its progressive springs? Progressive springs do not have a “set spring rate”. As a progressive spring compresses, the spring rate increases, unlike a conventional linear spring. This makes it impossible to put a specific rate on the spring because at different points in its travel, the spring rate will be different. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
