You really need to narrow things down a bit as there have been lots of "fx" models from the 7.1-7.9fx series and the newer fx2, fx3...series. Toss in the WSD versions and you have an additional set of top tube lengths. Sirrus has had many versions too.

You might do a search on on "Sirrus Comp geometry" or "Trek (some prefix)FX geometry" or "Trek FX(some suffix) geometry" and look at the effective top tube lengths, or stack and reach measurements if they are reported.

Trek data is readily available. Specialized data is out there, but more sporadic. The numbers (objective) comparing to what you have is a better estimate than someone's (of some height) random ride of some model of some year (subjective) estimate of how things "felt".

Specialized has a tiny bit more reach and a good amount more stack, as shown here.
