I have had 2 SAVE carbon posts. Both times they were 300mm long (original length). If you cut off 50mm you'll be cutting at the end of the aluminum insert. The 50mm of carbon and aluminum Di2 insert is roughy 35-40 grams.

I'd like to see the 60mm Conti Lite tubes on the scales. I've had over 10 of these and the lightest I've had was 73g, normally 75-77g.
Your stats claim yours are 66g each...
PS: Go with the Supersonics and save another 50g for £18!

My rear eebrake was a little mushy with standard housing. I switched to jagwire elite housing just for the short section from the frame exit to the rear brake. That improved the brake feel considerably and it feels totally balanced and normal now with the front.

FWIW, I'm 170 cm with 76 cm inseam. Center BB to Saddle on my bike is 71 cm. The bike currently has a 100mm stem on it.

I didn't save 87 grams with the spindle. I didn't even change the spindle. That is the stock spindle (as far as I know there is only one 109mm spindle). It's just a dash "-".
That said, I did save a fair amount of weight going from the 8 arm 52/36 Si spidering to the 10 arm 50/34 SiSl2 (as I recall on the order of ~50 grams)

Hi, Could you let me know the name of the top cap? I am looking for a really thin top cap, and that cap in your image looks quite thin!!!

It isn't a standard top cap.
Cannondale has a top cap and expansion plug that were designed to work together. They were standard Cannondale parts on my HiMod.
You can see the parts
here (along with a lot of other headset parts you probably don't need)
