| I’d welcome any balance bike recommendations for a tall (99th percentile in height) three-year-old. We’d hope to pass it on to his younger sibling down the road, so durability is a plus. |

| You want the bike to be low (makes it easier to balance) so height isn’t a concern. |

| Measure his inseam and get bikes with an adjustable seat that match his seat height. |

| Why not get a small bike and take the pedals off for a couple of weeks. |

This is an excellent approach. I probably would still get a 12" bike though. My 3 year old was tall enough for a 14" when he learned to ride, but it's so much easier to learn when you have a lighter bike, and one that's easy to get on and off. |
