Finding TT frame weights is always tricky. For those who know, can you fill in the frame weights? (let’s use a 54cm frame for comparability) Much appreciated!!
What other disc brake TT/Tri bikes are light weight? Thank you!
Include all the standard stuff that would come with a frameset (seatpost, integrated cockpit, fork, integrated storage, etc.)? What about integrated bottles as in the P5 Disc?

yeah, I’d include all of that stuff; basically anything you’d need as part of the frame for a 70.3. That’d also include the thru axels for the wheels, just not components.
I saw online the P5 disc is 1,100g, but that obviously doesn’t include thru axels or cockpit or storage… It’s really hard to compare apples to apples in the TT world. It’s hard enough with road bikes.
This query is for a pro who has a pretty low body weight and heavy frames make a difference… so even knowing which of these can be built up the lightest, all parts remaining static across frames, would be enough …
Cannondale slice is near a kilo (1020?)

Good call

What about the new Factor TT bike (not the Slick). I don’t think it’s available yet, but it could be pretty light considering what Factor is known for with their VAM tech. Alex Dowsett was riding it recently.
Argon 18 e118 disc is 2.65lbs for the entire bike. The entire bike is 17.8lbs. I know because I own one. Rode by Sam Long, Heather Jackson, Eric Lagerstrom, and Michelle Vesterby.
The only thing lighter is the Pinarello Bollide at 2.31lbs (14.11 lbs for entire bike), but I read it’s not the most aero. I think Cam Wurf rides one.
2.35lbs is 1065g

Watdo the riders have to do with OP’s question? And there are lighter bikes than those. I suspect the Shiv TT is the lightest.
OP, you’ll never get a straight answer on this because every quoted weight you’ll get or find will be with different parts included. Even “frameset” means different things to different people (i.e. including thru axles, hangers, bittle bolts, headset, seat binder, paint, etc. ad infinitum). You’re dreaming if you even ask for a specific size for this impossible comparison.
Here’s a Shiv TT build: https://weightweenies.starbike.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=166727
That’s proper light for a disc brake TT bike, and even includes the weight of the BB.

Didn’t see any pics, weights or component specs in that link…
yeah, not going to get a 100% accurate weight, but bikerumor does a fairly good job of posting weights and providing what’s included and what’s not (or at least they use to…) and we’ve learned over time how to make good comparisons.
Heres Remco’s Spec Shiv disc TT (damn ST 250kb limit):
Thing is, I don’t know if it’s lighter than a P5 disc, or Superslice, or new Factor Hanzo … and I think we could get some estimates here.
and by estimates, I mean, ‘this bike is the first bike I’ve ever owned and it feels light, so it’s definitely gotta be lighter than anything else!’ god bless Slowtwitch
The link I shared has the bike on a scale in the first post. You can add weight of whichever components you would add. Component weights are far easier and more reliable to find than frame weights.

shoot, must have to be logged in to see the pictures. can’t see them
1038g for the frame including hangers, bottle screws, BB, and possibly headset bearings. 376g for an uncut fork
Here is a build with Red AXS 1x, Speedplay Ti pedals, Roval CLX 64 front, 321 Disc rear, a tower of pad spacers, and bottle cages weighed at 7.9kg:

2.35lbs is 1065g
Actually 1066g 
.
that must be including loctite on the bolts then

I was just being pedantic. Since you gave a conversion to the nearest gram, I thought you should provide the correct number of grams.
2.35lbs is equivalent to 1065.94207g. That rounds of to 1066g, not 1065g. That’s all 
1lb = 453.59237g
