AHHH! Something of this magnituded belongs int he main forums! What part is cracking...is it the hub? 2 years seems like a pretty short lifespan for a wheelset. I would let Trek know...you may not get anything out of it, but I've got a friend who works in development for a bike company and he is constantly trying to wear out parts before customers do so that the company knows what to be prepared for. I would send it in to them, or at least give them a call. Unless of course you've been competing in x-games freestyle jumping with it, or hammering on cyclocross courses daily, or taking it off road...

It must feel good to have to replace something because you actually wore it out and got your moneys worth.
