Stuck between kilo tt and tt pro

I have some h plus son rims I want to put on it, and some mks pedals. And plan to buy seat and handle bars and a stem or a drop stem so i'll need a new headset right?, so what would be the better deal? probably a year down the line some cranks and a seat post I suppose

No. That makes no sense. If you plan on replacing the aforementioned components, there is no reason to get a pro. If you plan on just riding the bike stock without replacing anything, then you should get the pro.
