Islabikes cnoc or rothan?

[Iamweasel]

DS will be three in June (3 months time)

We'd like to get him a bike

He's not had one before so we were looking at a balance bike

But would we bs better off getting a cnoc? Can you take the pedals and chain off the choc and use it as a balance bike until he's ready fir pedals?

Thanks

Why not ask Islabikes directly? They are super helpful :). We have just bought a Rothan for ds's 2nd birthday and it is small if that helps.

I think you're worried about getting value for money?

You can get stabilisers for Cnoc, too, best of all worlds. Unless you like taking bottom brackets apart & reassembly.
I think I'd ask Islabikes for advice, too.
Keep in mind you'll get 50% of the outlay back when you sell (net of fees).

Consider other balance bikes, maybe. I have a 2nd hand Like-A-Bike for DS (just 4) & expect it to still fit him for another year.
