Solid frameset choice.
to me njs pedals

seem like a different direction than carbon rims but it's your bike.
I have speed-play pedals and Mavic ellipse wheels(which have been bomb proof for me on pot holed city streets)on both my bikes.
Personally If I was riding in SF where the hills are formidable I would run bullhorn handlebars or bars with brake hoods to improve the climbing leverage.
Best of luck
