Nope, seen that before, that's a lower-end model XC550 model steel frame, very heavy, around 34lbs. This thread is about the XC7000 aluminum that weighs 28 lbs and looks a lot different. I think the XC550 is a good first road bike for the casual rider on a budget looking to commute or get into shape, or just have some fun on a good looking bike.
