I had a 2008 Giant TCR, purchased slightly used, that went saggy on me starting my third year with it. I'd heard from many that the TCRs of this era had issues and Giant was replacing these frames, no questions asked. I wish I knew. But I replaced it with a 2012 Trek Madone 5.5, partly on the basis of Trek's frame warranty, and it's still going strong.
