Searching for aero-levers for dropbar postie bike

Does anyone have an unwanted pair of aero-levers that I could add to this?

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

If you're in Melbourne, go see Peter Moore at Abbotsford Cycles, tucked
under richmond railway station on Swan St

That's not odd at all, I've seen two similar DIY bikes in Melbourne.
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?

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

I should add, that I'm in Melbourne and I'd gladly take them off your
hands, what's the easiest way for you?

Much Thanks

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:

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,
