Toby is 43 inches tall or thereabouts. He outgrew his trike (we had the smallest Kettler, the Junior). For a two wheeler with training wheels, what size do your start out with? I was thinking 14 inch when I went to look but those were too small IMO, especially since he is only going to keep growing. I can choose between 16 and 18 inches. His inseam falls within the guidelines for either size. But man those things look huge, esp the 18 inches (more so compared to his tiny trike, LOL.) Looking for BTDT advice for 4-6 year olds getting first two wheeler and what size wheel you picked and it you think that was the best decision. Maybe 18 inches looks huge but won't so much this summer when it is most likely going to see more use? Seat can be lowered and raised. I am guessing for 18 inches, the seat would start out in the lowest position.
Also, recommended brands? We looked for used and um, not looking good around here in terms of quality and price...will buy new. But not looking to spend a whole lot.
