They're sweet bikes. The frame is entirely chromed and you can set this up anyway you like easily. I went with an SR Apex triple with 48/36/26 rings, first gen dura ace brakes, suntour cyclone derailleurs and barcons.

This is an interesting article on bike sizing that suggests you should focus more on top tube than seat tube length:

I'm a bit taller than you are at 5 11 but my legs are shorter. I fit on the 23 Fuji easily and I need a reasonably long stem. You are going to be shorter in the torso as you have long legs. That likely makes the 21 inch a better fit than the 23.
