What do you make of the Dia Compe brake set paired with ... whatever Shimano groupset that is?

I saw them and the stem and thought, "hmmmm those seem out of place....."
Perhaps owner stripped off original bars and stem with levers and took brakes, switching in the plain Jane dia compe ones? Using a phone so unsure if front is damaged but looks okay...
I know some folks have had trouble with flipping Terry bikes due to brand recognition issues (perhaps more so with Terry Geometry bikes?) but I know of two that sold rapidly. Been impressed with the paint jobs her Japanese frames have.

^^^^^^ Perhaps a flat-bar conversion that was subsequently converted back, using available parts.

But it says "Made _IN_ Jtaly" (not _BY_), so it must have been made inside Mr/Ms Taly.
Reminds me of a Groucho Marx quote - Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read.
The article referenced above obliquely implies that it is indeed a mis-strike, but evidently not rare. Dunno how one would research this, but it would surprise me if the entire run were made this way.

Or, this could be a rare misstrike (like happens with coins) and worth a lot of money.

Dig this Fiorelli made Coppi brand TdF Super. Reynolds 531 of some sorts tubed, Campy ends.
I like the build and wouldn't change a thing but for consumables and preservation.
Classic quirked Campagnolo components which seem just right with this bike. Cool tubular vinti racey wheelset.
Auction ending soon.

Shifts rides brakes great.new pads
I am only 5 7 and I can ride it fine. Maybe it has relatively short top tube that enables it to be ridden by wide range of people just by adjusting seat height. Will definitely work for taller riders too.

The black stem may simply be a fitting issue and that was all they had.

That Bianchi is pretty.
That Nishiki is tempting for the group but a 7 hour round trip is a deal breaker.

Selling it out of a scrap yard with pictures from the lube camera probably isn't helping any.

I have that exact bike, that came to me with most of those same components, save a Gipiemme crank, and clinchers. It's a blast to ride. That eBay one does have what looks to be a bent seat stay. Could be fixable, but worth a close look.
