I have gone 140mm XTR rotors on all my road bikes. For me, at 70kg bw, braking is fine and they are a good 25g lighter per rotor.
There are lighter wheels. Lighter tires. Lighter saddles, and you could go for the Nanogram Speedplay (pre Wahoo, -35g for me).
Mind you. All these savings will not make you even a 0.1% faster anywhere, really. So ride a bike you want to ride. Aero, friction and Crr are much easier felt than a few hundred grams.
