Another vote for balance bike, daughter started on one and when i took the stabilizers off her "proper " bike she was riding it within 10 minutes.
My lad was on a balance bike age 2.5, and onto a bike with pedals aged 4.5. Took 20 minutes to get the hang of it, and 40 minutes to be confident. Had some practice on pedal toys at Nursery.
The key is motivation - he saw his Dad come home from work on his bike every day, and had a fantastic time on the back of my bike aged 1.5 on holiday. Cried at the first stop as he thought the ride was over! Now loves his rides with Dad on Saturdays. 6.5 miles, but with several stops, including one for ice cream.
how does your lad travel with you on a ride, his own bike or a tag-along or a seat?
My daughter is too big for a seat but would love to get some more rides in
