I can only speak about the Fuji. I had a ccr-3 for a while. I'm a heavy rider so it was maybe a bit flexible up front , but I got rid of it from fitment issues. It's a very smooth ride. It's designed as a sporty touring race bike I believe. Slightly relaxed posture and road absorbin comfort. I also think for a full carbon bike it's hard to beat the price point of it as well as other Fuji. The stock seat was bad, the wheels were bulletproof but heavy. I think it's a great first road bike without a huge investment if you want to upgrade in a year.
