All three bikes have mounts for fenders and racks.

These are made for commuters. Did you even read any of the information on the bikes? They are exactly what the OP wants--something light and quick for riding to work and be a good fitness bike on the weekend. Any one of those bikes would be perfect for it.
Kind of amusing that OP asks about a dual-purpose bike and you tell him to buy two bikes.
