Searching for aero-levers for dropbar postie bike
Does anyone have an unwanted pair of aero-levers that I could add to this?
http://0rz.net/740JZ http://0rz.net/d70HN http://0rz.net/f20Ik It looks odd, but I can carry a week's shopping for four or 3 cases of beer easily and the drop bars make climbing much easier :-) Thanks Joel |

The only slightly odd thing is a friend has attached SPD pedals to his rig, that kinda gets my attention first.. Didn't Cheeky Monkey in Sydney have a payload bike built around a bmx frame? -- cfsmtb |

In Melbourne... neato bike btw... well designed for the job at hand! When I got it it had raiser bars and no gears (45 chain ring, 18 rear cog I don't know how the posties manage to carry 16 Kgs of mail on these things). I've had Cecil Walkers build a new rear wheel around a Shimano Nexus 7 speed hub and, added the drop-bars this morning which gives a much better ride position. I'm quite happy with it Cheers Joel |

They had some, but it was a bit more than I wanted to spend, they did a good job of rebuilding the read wheel and re-aligning the frame a couple of weeks ago though. How did you know I was there? Cheers Joel |

Much Thanks Joel Well, I live in Box Hill and work in Richmond, so if dropping by either of those works for you I can make sure I've got the various sets there so you can pick 'n choose. The levers are pretty much all like this: http://groups.msn.com/gumbercules197...hoto&PhotoID=5 Hard rubbish finds... Drop me an email (remove spamless)) and we can work out something if you'd like... -- eddiec |

Don't know if it was Cheeky Monkey but I do remember coming across a website for an Australian frame builder who made a load carying bicycle frame, |
