let's build a keirin/njs bike

all this talk of e-framebank and keirin frames got me wondering; how would you spec a keirin build from the ground up? it's not something i know a whole lot about, so educate me!

here's what i would do, but i would love to hear about other stuff.

(this is for a real-world build, so i'm leaving out the campy njs gruppo, as well as the shimano 10-pitch stuff)

frame: flavor of your choice, (mine is 3rensho 'cause i used to own one)
hubs: da high-flange, natch
cranks: 2nd generation da (fluted)
stem: nitto jaguar
seatpost: nitto pearl
bb: hatta? swan?
headset: hatta? swan?
bars: nitto b123 38cm (i'm a skinny guy)
pedals: no clue
straps: no clue
grips: no clue

did i forget anything? prolly.
