$420 lseems like a reasonably good dealio.
I reckon that my own bike weighs around 9kg at the moment (or perhaps just under 20lbs) but it's been awhile since I weighed it with a luggage scale. That's with a derailleur set up, it could be lighter still with a single speed, depending on what you want to do with your bike and how you want to ride it. I could probably find a lighter cassette if I wanted to be weight weenie supreme. I put an 11t-42t last time I replaced it. I don't think that I need quite that low a gear, even here where I live in the mountains. 11t-36t would do and be a bit lighter which might be better for climbing than having a ridiculously low gear. I climbed all the same roads before I switched.
