360g is a little bit "heavy", looking for something around 300g.

If you're getting the LTK266-D-SL and moving a SRAM Red groupset onto the bike, you really don't need to weight weenie as hard with the handlebars or the wheels if you goal is just sub 7. Different if you want sub 6.8 or 6.5. For the handlebars anything under 350g, really -- which means you won't have to sacrifice stiffness. Same for wheels, you can get cx-ray steel spokes and moderate depth-- shoot for anything under 1300g. Especially if you plan to run standard 28-32mm race tires.

Thanks for your input. Ultimately—with the exception of the front and rear derailleurs (Force components from my old bike)—all the components will likely be SRAM Red. As for the wheels, I went with a 1077g ZEN wheelset featuring Alpina Hyperlite spokes. My goal is to end up at around 6.8 kg for the complete, ride-ready bike—including pedals, bottle cages, and a Garmin mount. That is why I am looking for a handlebar in the 280–330g range.
