The comparative weight of the frames matters much less than the weight of the components (especially the tires, which can get quite heavy) that you assemble on to it. A reasonable steel bike build will be 22 lbs or more. A racist build will be down to 18 lbs or so. Of the models you mention and the use you describe, the Hillborne might be your best choice with plush fabric bead tires. Gravel Kings even. But as a song goes, "You're a winner either way."
