Maximum rider weight as specified by Ryde for the Pulse Sprint is 85kg, so as long as you stay there you should be okay for such a build. I'd stick with a 24/28 with the asymmetric rim for the rear though, if it was me. Even with that spoke count you could still hit the target build weight you are looking for and at that budget.
To go even cheaper use Pillar PSRXtra spokes instead of CXRays.

Thanks - I'll look at those parts.
Whittled myself down to 84kg with a target of 80kg. You could argue I'm not going to notice much difference at that weight, but a bit if extra zip and acceleration on climbs would be nice.
