Both my kids learned on a "draisienne" and they hoped on a regular bike like it was nothing the first day they got it. Kids in the neighborhood who didn't learn on a draisienne, but instead got small wheels, really struggled with balance, and some are still scared to ride their bikes to this day (I'm talking 5-9 years old kids), while my kids are riding with no hands. I don't know if it's enough to see a pattern, but I'm convinced :)
