Don't Spec have a product support forum? Or mail address? I'd ask what their engineers planned for you to do. The Tricross is supposed to be a general purpose bike. Otoh, this problem may be specific to the Comp version, which they could legitimately excuse from this...

If you want suggestions, you might want to post a picture here and in Bike Mechanics.
