Alu frame bikes under the 13kg weight .

I was just about to suggest this one. I bought one on Wednesday. If you were to hurry you could probably get the 2010 version for £450. The specs are excellent, and it's great fun to ride.
I'm (hopefully) getting some spare wheels so that I can replace my hybrid too. Slightly heavier, but not too much.

I have never tried them, but it has always striked me that of all the makes Boardman is most successful in making exceptionally light bikes for the price, so might be worth trying that if weight is important to you? Best to avoid relying on Halfrauds to set yours up though.
The other observation I can offer, is that unless the bike comes with some Continental, Maxxis or Schwalbe racing tyres and tubes it is not unusual to be able to pare weight (let alone rotational inertia) there significantly (say by 500g) for not too much money.
