Which hubs/spokes/rims would be a good way to go to have a light (1300-1400g) pair of rim brake wheels built up?
Edit - alu clinchers
I'm not convinced that there is a good way to do that. DT RR440 rims + DT240 hubs + 20/24 Aerolites/CX-Rays add up to nearly 1500g, where are you going to lose 100g, still less 200g, without compromising the wheel structure? Even using Tune Mig70/Mag170 doesn't get you under 1400g and might go through the budget limit.
WH-9000 is within budget and claims to be sub-1400g, if you want skinny lightweight wheels you're unlikely to do better than that.

I'm not desperate to go tubeless and nor am I bothered about going particularly wide, partly because the clearance between my stays isn't very generous - there's only about 3mm either side of a 23mm tyre on a Ksyrium as it is.
Budget is £500-600.
