Hi, I know S-works Tarmac SL6 and 11sp Di2 might be considered old tech these days but thought I'd share my new build just finished. Wanted to take the opportunity to thanks those on WeightWeenies road forum for helping with questions I had during the build, people have been very helpful with replies to posts and PM messages.

2019 S-works Tarmac SL6 disc size 58 Quickstep frame - new frameset I found for sale at a Spesh dealer last Aug.
Shimano R9170 groupset
S-works 175mm 52/36 Dual sided Power crankset
Roval Rapide 42cm bar
Bontrager Pro blendr 100mm stem
MagCAD Wahoo blendr mount
Supacaz Super Sticky Kush bar tape
Roval Rapide CLX wheelset
S-works 28mm Turbo Cotton tyres
Vredestein latex tubes, 40mm valve extenders, silca speed shields
Shimano XTR M900 rotors (160mm front, 140mm rear)
SRAM XG 1190 11-30 cassette
Dura Ace XTR 12-spd chain
Dura Ace 9100 pedals
Elite Leggero bottle cages
Selle Italia SLR Carbonio Superflow S3 saddle
Total weight as shown in pictures – 7.14kg

Still need to add K-edge Pro chain catcher and replace RD hanger with direct mount hanger
Hoping to get weight down to 7kg with Darimo 350mm seatpost and Berk Lupina padded saddle - 2months waiting list on Darimo seatpost at the moment.
Might consider Extralite Hyperstem with Extralite computer mount over the summer

Excellent build, that QS colour scheme looks very nice close up.

Hi rwm, I got the frame new with Specialized warranty for €2400/£2000

Now updated with Darimo seatpost and Berk Lupina saddle. My luggage scale tells me its 7kg but have proper Park Tool scales ordered so will post final weight when I get that in couple of weeks.

Final weight with Park Tool scales.
Aim was to build the bike sub 7kg so very happy with the weight and how the build turned out.
Need to start riding it now and will decide later if I replace the Bontrager stem and Blendr computer mount with Extralite stem and the new Alpitude mount.
