It is very much a race geometry, even more so than my Addicts, but I love riding it because of it's responsiveness. Total build with pedals is 12.9 lbs or 5.85 Kg.
all of you very easy sub 6kg, after i installed rotor 2inpower powermeter crankset and qring, my bike weight 6.5kg....

By using light tubular wheelset will around 200g/pc tyre, i think you're almost there.

With mcfk saddle and schmolke seatpost , it's 6.17kg with pedals, rotor 2inpower , qring and enve 4.5 with 25mm gp4k tyres.
I think it's very light for this build.
