I ride a DOC, but IMO the best street/park/dj bike out there is the Black Market MOB. Jumped on a friends that he just built and couldnt believe the difference...

What he said.

I've got a doc too but if I needed another bike and didn't mind dropping the money, I'd get a mob. Those things ride like a dream.

Just curious, what was it about the MOB that you liked better than the DOC? Thanks

Do you want a crappy chinese or taiwanese bike, or something made in the USA that is a few hundred dollars more expensive? What kind of geometry and features (singlespeed, discs,v's, gears) are you looking for?

I have a supercross MX26 and I love it....by far the best urban/DJ frame I have rode....the bike has great geometry, it's really light, and very strong....

Now, just because a bike is made in Taiwan dosent mean that it is poor quality.
