'Dough-mah-
nay' The way you say it's pronounced is Italian for 'tomorrow', and an Italian negative stereotype: "Hey Giuseppe, when are you going to have my bike built and ready to go?" "Domani." Trek got it wrong with their original pronounciation statement, but they've since corrected themselves. Clever to anagram Madone into a new model name; stupid, making it something no-one knows how to pronounce. "Hey, do you guys have the new dough-mane? Any with schram components?"

Definitely not elastomer suspension. Rather, a hard polymer de-coupling device that isolates the seat tube from the TT and seat stay junction. Allows for back and forth motion of the seat tube, which is uninterrupted from the BB to the seat post.
Sorry to pick nits. OP, glad you got the new bike! What did you do with the old, damaged frame...?
