Kilo TT from Bike Island question

Are the Kilo TTs from BikeIsland.com the same as the Mercier track frame?

If they're not, does anybody have any pictures a completed bike?

Help me identify three bike accessories

Can somebody or everybody tell me the brand/type of saddle, bar tape, and the tires in this picture?
Maybe even where to get them? O_o
