From the looks of your saddle position, you could probably loose some weight by using a straight seat post.

I have considered that, but the Canyon seatpost should be one of the best comfort carbon seat posts.
Thanks for you're reply

Conti Supersonic tubes, Veloflex corsa 23mm tyres. That should save you about 80gms for not much spend.
Other than that it would be a new stem (Extralite maybe), post and or crank, in ascending cost order!
Oh and I almost forgot some EE brakes.

For $200 you could go with either some used Ciamillo brakes or Planet X CNC brakes.

Neither are going to be as good as DA, for sure The Ciamillos are close enough though.....unfortunately the tires/tubes are not going to get you there so you are going to need to make concessions to reach your goal.

Bottle cages lighter than 18g?
cables is noted

It's a good effort.
Yes - see cages and cables as an option
Pedals also - what about Blade Tis?
It's really the wheels that need upgraded to tubs to get down to mid 6s.
