I've got two 531 frames (with a third on order).  I love them.

531 frames are very stiff and very durable, and your's is probably guaranteed
by the shop you bought it from or by TREK or by Reynolds for life against 
breakage in normal use.  (These guarantees are usually implicit, just try 
the shop and then write the company if it breaks.)  Both my Holdsworth
and my Puch are guaranteed like this.

The new Treks have investment cast lugs which probably means your
frame is very well alligned and very stiff.   Congratulations!  You're
going to love that bike.
