yea but dobs have really sweet geometry, high bb like a bmx, lowers your front abit which makes it rely easy to spin and do no footed tricks like t-whips, i know the guys who design and hand build em, they make top end equip'd bikes dude
and bout the frame, i cudnt care less, ive ridin specialized p2/3, 125's, and a couple other frames and dobs still feel better... but ya, personal preference i guess
