I recently bought the '08 Trek 1.5. The 1.5 has an upgraded aluminum frame over the 1.2 which should be noticably different during test rides. Atleast that is why I went with the 1.5. The 1.5 uses the same frame as the 1.7 and 1.9 and the same quality aluminium as some of the Trek mountain bikes (Black Aluminium). The 1.2s use White Aluminium and the 1000s of the past probably use the same.
