To me the 7.9 looks so antiquated next to the 7.7. Especially up around the head tube. You know the 7.7 frame is the Madone 3 series frame? I wish it had 105 components instead of Tiagra, but I'm very happy with my Deore stuff on my Mendota, so the Tiagra is likely just fine.
Antiquated huh ... LOL. The 7.9FX is spec'd head and shoulders above the 2013 7.7FX.

Any factory, not just Trek, selling a CF frame bike for under $2,000, or thereabouts, is skimping on something ... big time. Just the way it is.
