Having a large rear tire is not really an issue, since there really is no advantages to that, and the people running them are just trend *****s... You can use the frame for other styles of riding, but like i said, dont expect it to last. its not made to take the hits and abuse that street, trail, or skate park riding have. Yeultis maybe the frame can stand up to mple cases on race track doubles, but 90% of the time these "doubles" you are able to roll over, and the knuckle on the landing is not nearly as hard to case as casing a quarter pipe coping on the way back in or a real dirt double, more like casing a wall...
