is it a decent weight saving?
Not really. Groupset is a preference thing. If you want sram, I'd move red shifters to the dale and get (used?) force and S500 (both you can buy as single at bike24 new) on Talbot. And maybe Red brakes for matchy matchy. Then look out for SiSL on ebay etc.
Weight savings will mainly come from wheels. Get latex tubes pronto.

@Shroom considering following your lead with the SRAM red. Currently my talbot is running 1x with a sram X9 rear derailleur, and red YAW shifters.
I still have the red front and rear derailleurs and a good condition 10 speed cassette and chain just lying around, so I'd either need to buy new shifters, or buy a force right and just an S500 lever for the left, or just buy a new pair of red shifters.
Have you sold your 5800? No idea what kind of price I'd get for shifters, derailleurs, chain and cassette..
is it a decent weight saving? I have noooo idea!
