I don't have any numbers for you but I can share that I went thru a similar search a few years ago.
I had been riding a Specialized Transition (Comp) and it was plenty fast for me but it was so stinking heavy on the ups. I had been riding that used Transition for many years when I went and signed up for IMCanada. Those 2 factors led me to search for the tri bike that was lighter than most, still as aero as most, and didn't cost me a second mortgage. Everything I found led me to the PRsix. It wasn't the lightest per the spec sheets out there but it was close. It wasn't the most aero per the tests but it was in the ballpark with all of the most aero frames out there. And, it was def the most bang for the buck when I considered the perks vs the investment compared to the others.
Once I started riding it on my local hills, I was pleased with the choice. Don't get delusional...it won't climb better than the roadies in the group. But, as long as I'm riding smart, it doesn't sabotage me on the hills. And, that's in group'ish rides where I'm in 'keep up' mode. Conversely, riding solo with a power meter, tri style, it does a good job flattening the hills. And, it absolutely flies on the downs and the flats. Tuck and let 'er rip.
It's been a few years now and I'm still happy with it. No New Bike Itch happening anytime soon.
