^^how light are we talking? I'd say novatec bolt on rear (the bolt ons are lighter) then novatec road hub front (re-anodize it silver for classic look) 28/24, 2x rear, radial front, the double butted 1.8/1.5/1.8 spokes that DT Swiss do, laced to silver a23's for cost and weight or archetypes for aero and hipster cred, that should be about 1.5kg for the wheelset, to go much lighter you'd have to get your crabon on I think
Cranks wise, miche are ok, and look like they polish up nicely, I'll have some off my frame in a bit and I'll weigh em for you, I'd say look for some road cranks though, I'll have some fsa gossamers that I'll weigh for you too if you want, but if have a look on weightweenies and their database for cranks
