Hey Creeze,
I'm also looking at the Trex 7.2 fx, the Kona Door Prize and the Specialized Sirrus. Heading out in a few minutes to try to get some rides in before it rains. If one doesn't feel significantly better on a test ride, I'll probably go with the Giant.
My understanding of the toe clips is that they can be removed with a couple of screws if you only want a flat pedal. And of course pedals can be changed.
I think the 2010 Sirrus comes with toe clips too.
