Looking for a lightweight frame hybrid/road bike and wonder if I have missed any options. Trek FX or Specialized Sirrus seem likely choices. Would want to fit 700c x 38 Tyres ideally for comfort. Any other options worth looking at? Gravel/Cyclocross bikes normally come with drop bars, I guess it must be possible to change bars and shifters though.
Thanks!

Dunno if Planet X still offer the XLS with a flat bar? Might be an option. It'll fit 38mm max tyres.

It is possible but drop bar bikes usually have shorter top tubes compared to flat bar frames so I wouldn't recommend it.
