Wow, 16.7-lbs! That's pretty amazing. I'd like to see a breakdown of the frame/fork/components - my Bianchi Veloce with a carbon crank and hollow titanium bb weighs in around 21-lbs and my Pista with the same frame tubing as yours weighs 19-lbs as a fixie. Granted I could put a few lighter components on either but I can't see the Veloce getting down that light.
[edit] Ok, just FYI, I reweighed mine and they're more like 20.5 and 18.5 without pedals.
