What bike am I remembering?

I was working in Canada in 1994 and 1995 and while I was over there, a friend I was living with (in a tipi) had a beautiful black and yellow carbon fibre full susser. I could have sworn it was a Trek but a look around the internet can not confirm this. I don't recalll the frame having a classic double diamond, it looked more substantial. I believe there was some bare metal aswell (lugs I think). Nothing I see online seems to fit my memory exactly. I was sure the model had a number too (discounting the Y bikes). I could be wrong though. I'm sure it was top of the line or close to. Any ideas?

Oh and I think it was new in 94 or 95
 
you're not thinking of these from a couple of years later?

No I was definately only in Canada in 1994 and 1995 so anything which came out later is unlikely to have existed at the time.

I'm starting to wonder if maybe it did have a more traditional frame but very chunky so the impression is lost a little.
 
I think 1st carbon GT FS was the thermoplastic LTS and that was several yrs later.

Trek had an OCLV issue of their single pivot full suspension in around 1994.
