A simple SS with Diamond Frame

I have done my home-work:

What I came to find is all I need is a simple bike with diamond frame, either SS or a one with 3-5 gears. I decided to go with SS as I don't have much budget and I cycled around 11 years ago last time. Here are the roads conditions and the traffic where I will be riding:









I ride for longer distances like 20-40 KM and I ride 2-3 times a week. I don't ride for speed but comfort. Along with that I decided to go for cycling 15 KM every morning to strengthen my stamina. My aim in having a bike is health. I am computer programmer, hence I have to sit on a chair, in front of a computer all day and write programs. Because of lack of exercise, I decided to buy a cycle for commuting. I will be buying of these cycles, can you recommend anyone ? If you want to see the specs, just click on the image to go the web-site:
















There is one cycle I did not mention named BSA Photon, it is actually with very thin tires (like a road bike) which I hate because as I already said I don't ride a cycle for speed, I ride for comfort but I tell you about this because I have lot of recommendations of it from other people. Last one named LA-Sovereign Spider is actually the most comfortable bike as compared to all of the above, most expansive as compared to others but as I was given advice by the all of the guys of the bicycling club on tension-free-parking, I don't think I am gonna buy this, its price is 5200/- INR (INdian Rupees). It has a clip-release saddle which means if I park the cycle then anyone can just come and release the clip and take it away. It just takes 2 seconds . So I decided to go with everything fixed using nuts and bolts.
