To get that last pound and a half off a TT bike would be tough, and it's really not necessary. Trust me, 16.5 lbs on a TT bike (like a P3 with Zipp tubies) is generally about as light as they get, the cockpit adds about a pound or more over a road bike with regular drop bars.
You can buy them on eBay all day long for about half the price of a new one. Tri geeks tend to buy the bikes and hardly ride them. Even with all the miles I ride, I don't ride the TT bike more than 1000-1500 miles/year.
