Pedal-ability has to do more with set up and component choice than the frame, IMO. Even the frames with supposedly superior pedaling characteristics are dogs to spin with if you have little compression damping, a long, active fork, a short cockpit, heavy wheels and tires and a low seat. Switching to lighter tires and wheels and cranking up the compression and rebound damping (as well as SPV or Propedal depending on your components) will make a big difference. The ability to get your seat up high is important too. Some frames allow for more pedal-friendly set ups than others. I can ride around on the road with my DH bike if I have light tires on, the pressure in the tires high, and I jack up my seat. As long as I don't get out of the saddle it rolls fine. However, some of my friends with very similarly equipped bikes have a hard time pedaling through the lift line because they run DH tubes with barely 2 digits worth of pressure, road cassettes, slammed seats and sky-high handlebars. Good luck.
