Which bike has the best of both worlds?

Thanks

After a thorough study of the names, I would pick the Trek FX 7.5. That one is the only one with a non-speed name. The others are clearly bikes for professional riders, not those of us after an upright and comfortable ride or smooth ride over rough pavement.

Seriously are the names a bit of a joke?
