They don't do 144 bcd, but you could probably live without that, really. If you can't, you could probably run the track crank/bb of your choice if you get a threaded BB frame.
Thanks for the video that definitely cleared some things up. So the 42t in the rear was originally for mountain bike use. Wobbly chains are a real problem. There are alternate teeth patterns for kicking out mud. OK now that's something I gotta read up on. But the chain sticks to the teeth much better?
