The Lazer G1 MIPS can be found for around $150. I'm not sure you will find any of the helmets that most consider "low profile" for $100 or less unless you find a closeout type sale.
I would not buy a helmet without trying it on for fit and comfort. I have yet to find a Specialized helmet that fits my egg well, even though I love their shoes.
This.
p.s. if you live in NYC I am sure there are plenty of shops nearby you can go check out for size/fit
