I think it's around 25-27 lbs, not insanely heavy, but the bike I ended up with was around 20/21.
Trek only makes one touring bike? They make one of everything, I'm shocked they don't make a unicycle (maybe they do?)

No problem, there are lots and lots (and lots) of other builders to choose from

Check out V's Riv, beautiful, comfortable and light enough to do doubles on.
