I would probably find a way to come up with another $50 for a Cabo. Or, I'd get the Spheros and a spare spool for it.
At $100 budget, the Spheros would be a no-brainer.

A Spheros with a spare spool is still sub-$150.Bargain
I've used both the Cabo and the Boca.All you get with the Cabo is a few extra (useless) bearings,a fancy handle and spool with holes in it.The Boca is essentially the same reel minus $70.
1st choice-Spheros
2nd choice-Boca

I love my Cabo but it hates braid for some reason.

My Quantum Boca 40 does fine on braid once I get the spool down to where it should be, not overfilled. Some of the issues are a result of the way I fish topwater and weightless jerkbaits always reeling against a slack line. Put on a swimmer or jig and the twist disappears. A light rinse after use and it's a good as new, I know a guy who only rinses when a wave splashes on his gear and it looks like H E L L.
