The Aken brakes look like a Record variant to me; Dual Pivot; Ti hardware; 275g; available for Euro 167 + S/H through ShockBike:
http://www.shockbike.com/
or through RoiBike:

Here's also an Aken direct link through AdvancedPro, but the individual links aren't working....:

Don't know the frame weight, can't find the bar weight listed on Roi.
It looks like it's available only in 100, 110, 120, and 130x42 (center-center). Euro 540 (with IVA, so 20% less to US).
You might contact Roi if you're interested:
