Hi there,
 
becaus my DT 770 get a bit huge to carry everywhere and a bit too heavy to wear while running, I am searching for a good sounding pair of in ears around 130 $ / 100 €.
I already own the Brainwavz R1, but they are crapy (sound is average, but they don't fit)
 
I'd like to have a clear and a little bassy sound and a real comfortable and safe fit.
 
Here is a picture of my ear (I don't know if they are large, medium or small, but maybe thats important) and a picture of how ****ty the R1 are fitting my ears:

Thanks for your help!

There is a cheap option that I think would fit your situation. The Sony mdr-ex58v. Very light, comfortable and honestly disappear in your ears. The Sony hybrid tips that come with them are extremely comfortable and are almost $10-11 by themselves. The total price for the earphone is $15 off ebay or $17 from amazon. 
 
The sound is nice and clear. It doesn't really have any particular flaw that stands out. It brings the bass when the track class for it. 
It has a cable neck slider, a in-line volume control and a 90 degree plug. The cable is average for the price range.
 
You really can't go wrong with these. Even if it turns out that they don't suit you, you'll end up with some nice tips. They won't blow your mind sonically, but they are an enjoyable, non-fatiguing listen. They are my "throw in my pocket or backpack go-to earphone". 
 
I'd recommend these before jumping into something $100+ for a carry around earphone.
