Diamondback Interval Carbon Elite, Trek 7.7 FX or Specialized Sirrus Expert

I'm looking for carbon fiber hybrid bike. After car accident I have neck problem and drop down bikes not working for me. I'm riding every morning before work about 15 miles and weekends about 40 miles. I didn't ride for 20 years and started again in March. I like to ride hard and fast as I can to get myself in the good shape.

I found:
Diamondback Interval Carbon Elite for $1,360
Trek 7.7 FX for $1,700
Specialized Sirrus Expert Carbon Disc for $1,990

I'm not a bike expert and need good advise.
Thank you.

I am also considering a carbon flat bar hybrid. I am familiar with the Specialized and Trek models. I was not familiar with the Diamondback. I am surprised at the components on the Diamondback for that price. Your dealer must be having a good sale. The list price is much higher. I called 3 dealers in my area. I was told they are not available. I live in MN. Where are you at?

I'm living in Seattle area. Diamondback price is through my company program and other ones is just local dealers. Specialized is very hard to find actually in my area.

Did Trek 7.7 drive test and didn't like it. Big price, small futures.
Found Giant FastRoad CoMax 1 for $1,680. Love it.
