Double reed bending on tremolos is feasible for me. Hohner and Suzuki models
both do it, as well as the various dime-store Chinese brands. I can't comment on
Seydel tremolos, not having any to try out.
Reed adjustment can make a difference, and openngs on the vertical divider can
defeat bending, but the form factor and the reeds of standard tremolos present
no barrier to dual reed bends.

I have to agree with Bertram here.
It is possible to bend single reeds on the tremolo, both draw and blow. However
bending the double reed (the normal playing mode) is not feasible. At least, not
for me.
