Crest Mk3 rims now weight a mere 364g.
Mountain bike part are sometime lighter.

Arent you using a cyclocross fork though? Are hope disc hubs not a mountain bike component? Seems a shame to limit yourself to heavy/expensive road disc rims, when years worth of MTB improvements are available, like the Crest Mk3 that ed mentioned

Yeah but that was before Road disc rims for wide tyres really existed Scoble's. And @turkish purely because it's a road bike and I don't want any mountain bike components on it :-)
I wouldn't discount how effective the "wrong" parts can be, I'm impressed with how well my XTR Di2 mech works on my CAAD12, and that's running ENVE XC-29er rims with 28c Schwalbe Pro-One tyres tubeless at 55/65 PSI. I deliberately used MTB parts to add to the nostalgia value (hence 1990 Klein paint-job), but they work flawlessly.
