Hey sh00k, I was thinking about the warranty issue you raised while considering the 7.9. I had gotten a 2010 Trek catalog, so I read the warranty. While there's a lot to it, it sure seems, except for the fork, the rest of the frame should be covered lifetime (except for "the Session model" which I have no idea about, there no such model in their "Lifestyle" catalog which covers the fxs). I see "rigid forks" being covered for 5 years. Carbon never seems to be mentioned, so Al or c arbon forks seems equally covered.
They state suspensions are covered by OEM warranties, but don't say that about Sihimano, which IS mentioned as an exclusion!
Weird stuff...
