I've decided on buying a new hybrid, I'm open to either LBS or online. I need to have a more upright riding position to control increasing shoulder/back pains with the years. I found myself riding less last year, besides the weather, because of that. I still love to ride though.

Absolute max budget is $1000 but would prefer $600-900 range. My priorities are a good fit, prefer rim brakes and flat bar unless position is good with drops, and want lighter weight. I ride probably 90% on the road and 10% on unpaved but packed trails. Any advice?
