I'd get the FX mostly because a person needs more than one bike.

On my commuter I want:
Fenders
Rear rack
Appropriate gearing for the ride
Wheels easy to remove and flats easy to fix with tire size flexibility.

The FX could provide all of that. I'd add bar ends and clipless pedals to the mix too.
