Opines for spokes to be used in this wheel set

Some of the parts came in, today, for my new Soma Delancey. I'm using IRO track hubs and DT Swiss 1.2 RR clinchers. I'm still considering which spokes to use in this build. I weigh 165 and a bit of a masher, but I'm not hard on parts. Thots and suggestions are appreciated. I'd really like to build a comfy wheel set for this fixie.
