The renegade is most roadbike of the two. Seems like your budget is 1000 dollars plus or minus. You want a road bike and you want a Giant Trek Cannondale. You should stick to those and you won't have buyers remorse (not that the Jamis is not a well made bike). The three brands you mentioned all make aluminum road bikes that are equipped with Shimano 105. One of those will do anything you would ever want a road bike to do. Commuting, club rides, centuries, gravel, even racing.
