I have become an accidental evaluator of brake pads' positions in their calipers' slots primarily as an in-vain effort to see if I could put generous 28mm tires (up to 30mm) in some of these modern race bikes. So I'm back to being happy with riding touring bikes quickly and comfortably over crummy roads. Anyway...
The Super Sport is a different bird than a Tempo. Super Sports are short reach brake only for 1985 (I had a 1984). Looking at the photo below, the brake pads are pretty well down in their slots on these short reach calipers. Looking at the vertical gap from the top of the tire to the brake bridge/crown, there should be enough room, in my experience, to fit healthy 28mm tires.
A 1984 Tempo is a bit longer legged. Standard reach brakes are used (see bottom photo) which means 32s are easy to fit. Very nice.
