Those brake levers looks like 1990s vintage Campagnolo. A very interesting choice for the ad, considering they've been out of production for almost 20 years.

Not only are those Weinmann 144-pattern brake levers (found on centerpull bikes, either with weinmann or dia compe brakes), but also, the diamond-shaped head badge likely makes the bicycle a vintage bike a centurion, or possibly a Mercx (but not too likely imho with centerpulls). Anyone else know some asian bikes made with diamond shaped badges?
