Our 2 year old has been using a balance bike for a couple of months now, and it only weighs in at 7 pounds while the $300+ kids pedal bikes are 13-16 pounds.
Balance bikes are a great way for the kid to learn to balance because of how light they are, and they can easily pick the bike up while a pedal bike without pedals makes it harder to do so because of the weight.
But as you said, some kids, especially older ones, can totally use a regular bike without pedals.
The bike that OP linked is a steal because even the cheapest balance bikes that are decent usually are $35+.

BTW this concept of a balance bike works way better than training wheels to teach kids to bike. I taught 3 kids how to bike this way at age 3-4 (removing the pedals and lowering the seat to begin with) and they learn very quickly.
