Avid cyclist here.
Never had a name brand bike helmet aside from Bell from walmart. I always buy the $20-$30 range from Amzon, in for a Giro Midnight Blue Heatwave.

Actually, I think MIPS is most beneficial when you're riding on roads, since roads are a flat, high friction surface where your helmet is most likely to grip and twist instead of sliding.

The adult size should fit a 4' 10" 100lbs 12 yo boy. I'm buying an adult size for my 11 yo of about the same height and weight. He was previously using a 54cm helmet.
