Sounds like a good choice for you. Don't forget to go back for the tune up.
My "old"bike was 35# (by my scale). The Domane is advertised at 19.1 for a 56cm frame. Mine is a 58, so I assume it must be close to 20 between the larger frame and adding pedals.

Believe it or not, the only pic I took was for my wife after I loaded up at the LBS. Not that great. And since Photobucket tanked I haven't come up with a good hosting method. Here's the stock photo from Trek. It really does look exactly like that, other than not having pedals (envision Wal*Mart grade $69.99 kids bike plastic pedals for the moment):
Well, I did add a couple bottle cages and my top bar bag plus my iPhone holder on the handlebar stem.
