I'm actually a USA Cycling certified coach.

I'd be happy to help, but you won't get anything truly "lightweight" in that price range unless you go used. I just sold a 22lbs bike for $1000 to a friend and feel like I gave it away!!

If your going to be riding trails often it's best to save a little money and get a bike with a component set that can handle the abuse. I like to stick to the rule of Shimano SLX(mountain) 105(road) equal or better. LMK if you have questions or PM me and I can give you my cell
