Shimano 'Z' series brakes and Light Action derailers have been mentioned, but I also like the upper-tier Exage comps. EX 400/500 is pretty much the same as 105 with different cosmetics and finish; ditto for CX/LX 500 and Deore LX.
I also like the SunTour 'backwards' FDs,plain 'ol Normandy high-flange hubs, and Viscount/Lambert cranksets. The set on my Super Sport consists of Nevar BB and crank arms, Lambert small and middle ring, and Viscount outer ring.
