You missed out Strider metal balance bikes which are fab. Wooden bikes look cute but are too heavy and not adjustable enough. Striders are extremely light (a 2 year old can lift it), massively adjustable (age 18 months-5 years)and look like a 'real' bike so they won't think it's a toddler toy by the time they are 3 or 4. They also have solid tyres that never need pumping and can be ridden easily over or uneven bumpy ground. Also they have foot rests to encourage older experienced riders to free-wheel - a vital skill for learning to ride a real bike.
