Weight Weenie Questions

So I sidelined my weight weenie build for a while and now I'm gonna get back to it. After searching the forums I've found mention of a TTT stem and SL bars. Which model stem? And the only bars I've found with that name are modern and have an "ergo" bend which I don't like. I've also read in the same thread about a SR Royal stem. I'm guessing they are pretty hard to find?

Any other suggestions for super light bars and stem?

The build so far:
)DA bonded alloy frame and fork (Kinda like a Vitus)
)Misc. alloy bolts (crank, chainring, stem, bottle, etc.)
)Topline cranks (still need rings and BB. Suggestions? I've got a Teledyne spindle but I'm paranoid)
)CLB Spaceline brake calipers (I'm gonna hunt down the illusive lightweight Weinmanns for comparison)
)Modolo Kronos levers
)Modolo or Ofmega composite shifters
)Jubilee RD
)American classic post 25mm
)Nylfor Headset
)Zeus 2000 freewheel

So ya! Don't really have much yet but I'm still hunting. Any suggestions or leads on parts is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Kelly D
