I've seen some used Carbon bikes that tip the scales in the 18-19 pound range for under $500, but not under $300. I paid $450 for my Trek Y-foil, which weighs under 19 lbs. I recently saw a Kestrel KA40 Airfoil in really nice condition that weighed under 19 lbs and the seller was asking $400. There are several Trek 5200 and 5500 bikes around San Diego being offered for $450-500 and those too weigh under 19 lbs. For under $300, you could probably find an older aluminum Cannondale or Specialized that weighs under 20 ins,
