ISO: "touring" parts..

..even though I won't be touring. But I need to set up my bike with low enough gearing to race 150 miles and 10,000ft climbing.
I'm thinking 32h 700c wheels, 170mm low-geared (triple?) crankset w/ corresponding Italian BB, derailleurs, 13-32? freewheel or similar (7s?) cassette (obviously has to match the wheels), barend shifters, indexed would be awesome.
Also need toe strap type pedals. And a Selle San Marco Regal from the 80s. And possibly a full size frame pump. Piece of cake right?

- crank ✓
- barend indexed (8s?) group
- 32h wheels
- BB (for Sakae triple crank)
- freewheel/cassette (depends on the wheels) ✓
- toe strap pedals ✓
- 26.6 seatpost ~300mm+ ✓
- Vittoria 1976 shoes (size 11)
- Selle San Marco Regal ✓
- frame pump
