Hey guys,
My 5.5 yo son just learned a couple weeks ago. He started with training wheels this spring but was getting overly comfortable, relying on them.
Then we took the wheels off, pedals off, lowered the seat all the way so he could easily touch and he used it as a balance bike for 2 weeks. At first it was hard for him but he got to where he was gliding and turning really well.
Then put the pedals back on and he could ride on the 1st or 2nd try! Very comfortable on the bike after a couple more days.
Highly recommend this method and you don't have to buy a separate balance bike!!
