The difference is that the mountain bike tube is much burlier and wider than the dirt jump tube but may not be as strong in terms of hard hitting strength.
not all are. if you want to do dirt jumping i recommend you do not use a normal mountain bike. get a proper dirt jump bike. i used a felt q520 xc bike to dirt jump and the forks broke and i took it in and the mechanic said i had damaged the frame and it was close to snapping.

How much d dirt bike. Helmets cost
A cruiser bike is a bike that gives an upright riding postion, is usually blinged out, and is ridden rather sedately. A dirt bike is something like a cross between a BMX and a MTB. Usually a singlespeed, suspension fork and rugged frame to stand up to jumps and tricks. MTBs are available in several different versions(XC, AM, DH), but basically they're about providing a compromise between ruggedness and rideability.
