They make very nice fixed road bikes. Closer than most to old Path frames. Trying to build in stiffness with your choice of wheels is slightly missing the point of these bikes IMO. Your not a heavy guy so a nice set of box section rims (such as the open pro), along with a Brooks and Paselas will make it a very comfortable ride in keeping with the character of the frame.
Nitto 123 bars are for short sprints, and wont work well with hoods so you might want to rethink that a bit. Nitto do a few other options (such as the 125s) that might be more suited.
