The Globe is slanted more toward the comfort line, While the Sirrus is leaned more toward the performance hybrid type.

If memory serves me correctly, the Sirrus also has braze-on front and rear. I also think that various rubber configurations (tire size) are also available with the Sirrus, depending on model level. Without checking specs, I think the componentry is of a higher level on the Sirrus.

If you can find last years model, the componentry is of a higher level, too. (Cost cutting entered the picture)
