The little chap has been blasting about on his likeabike jumper for the last 18 months and he loves it but I feel he's about ready for pedals and much to his mum delight...brakes 
So what can I replace this with....

it'll be top of the list if it isn't too expensive.

Islabike Cnoc 14 (or 16)
Thump is nearly 4 and has been riding around on his Cnoc 14 for 6 months now. Three cycling friends have bought them for their kids after seeing it. They are beautiful, light bikes with brakes specially designed for wee hands.
Thump is big enough for the Cnoc 16 but the 14 will do him fine until his wee brother grows into it. They keep their value too - I've seen heavily used bikes selling for £100 plus.If in doubt give Islabike a call - they are really helpful and will talk you through any sizing issues.

Isla Bikes are doing an open day at their new shop nr Ludlow, last Sat in March.

Islabikes are great but expensive, even secondhand (though that means you don't lose so much selling them on)
Most of the big bike brands now also do small starter bikes - Trek, Giant and Specialized. Have a look on ebay - at that age there a lot of good stuff about without much use/damage
FWIW, swadey jnr has had Treks and Ridgebacks, in decent nick, effectively halfprice off ebay.

Littlelister has a Cnoc16 (he's only 3.5) but he's a big lad and it fits him well.
Lovely little bike. Just looks so good and he loves it, it's nice and light as well. Worth every penny cos his sister will have it in a couple of years.Posted 1 year ago # -
I will add my vote to the Cnoc. My son has had once since he was 3. It is a great bike, and very well designed.

The guy that imports the likeabikes thought the kokua (above) might be around 250 quid!! now i like my bikes and it is very nice but 250 for a kids bike....jebus!
