Okay, final decision will be made tomorrow:

Trek SU200

OR

Trek 7.5 FX
http://www2.trekbikes.com/bikes/bike...d=1341000&f=26

I'm being given a generous Trek discount. For the riding to work/school/errands (<15 mi. a day) that I plan to do with this bike, I'm down to these two. I doubt I'll ever have any gripes about any differences between them. They're essentially the same bike. Very comparable anyway. I slightly prefer the looks of the SU200, but feel like I'd be giving up too much of a good bike if I didn't get the FX 7.5. I know I'll end up being really pleased with either of these bikes, but I'm deeply torn.

The 7.5 FX is the better bike for most practical considerations: better components, carbon fork, better wheels, probably slightly lighter, etc., but strikes me as sort of cruiser-bike looking. Maybe it's the rise in the handlebar? Yet the SU200 seems a bit more aesthetically pleasing. ...I think? No? This may end up being an aesthetic decision, although I know that internet pics aren't the best representations: both bikes will look different (and better) in person.

Are the differences negligible, or am I a fool for not obviously choosing the ____ due to its _____? Please do voice any opinions: materialistic, mechanical, fashion-driven, pragmatic, petty, or whatever. Which bike is cooler? Smarter? Sexier?
I nixed the SU100 only because I don't really like the dark-gray graphics on light-grey paint job. Seems kind of flashy.

Please weigh in--I welcome any opinions I can get. Sway me. HELP!
