Answer 1

try it on. does it fit comfortably? does it move when you move your head? is the chin strap able to adjust properly? my 9 year old daughter can wear small adult helmets, or large childrens helmets. better helmets do come in different sizes, just like better bikes. this helmet is just another example of how wallywood and target think we can all use the same sized equipment..

edit-- I wouldn't buy it without trying it on first. unless I was replacing something I already knew fit me.

Answer 2

Bell is a good brand and the Cam Lock gives you a lot of adjustment beyond the larger foam pads so many helmets rely on.  My Bell helmet has the Cam Lock and it gives a good fit.  Plus if it doesn't fit, you can return it at any Target store....

Looks like a decent helmet. Being a 55-57 you will need a adult size.
