Nice! I like the Victory components. I have them on my Rossin and am a big fan.
My Rossin also has Ambrosio Super Elite rims, but a non-aero version. I didn't even know they made those you have there.

Thanks, and thanks all. The Tempo is a sweet ride. I gave my other Tempo to my son in law, and will need to pull another Tempo frame out of storage and build......although I'll be riding this bike for a while....

I have ridden this same saddle in the cream color for a year. It is as as comfortable as the leather Brooks, with no break in period. Additionally, there is one comfortable place on the leather saddles, while there are several comfortable positions on the Cambium. I like them. This is the first time for the Cambium bar tape.

Very nice. (All the work you did on the build made your camera focus a lot better.
)
Gatorskins? Size? You like? What's your impression of them on this bike?

I like the Continental 4 seasons tires. I have those on my Peloton. (I may have had Ultrasports on another bike - the name is familiar. The bike I thought they were on, turned out to be Seca FPS.???)
I will break them in and let you know what I think of them.

Very nice!!!! I have a red one - fastastic rider.
In the post above you mention 27" tires - does this frame work with this size? Mine takes 700c.

What a beauty - helps to start out with a frame in almost perfect condition such as this! Your parts choice is great, too. I hope you find a nice 700c wheelset with which to bring it all together.
Congrats on a great build

jj, that really is a fine-looking bike. If'n I had to guess, I'd say you wouldn't be happy with Ultrasports on it. But everybody has their own tire opinions.
