A buddy is offering to sell me his SRAM Red full double crankset to replace my Ultegra Compact set. I’m currently riding a Bianchi via Nirone 7 which came with an FSA BB-6000. Does anyone know if the SRAM Red crankset is compatible with my existing BB? He says that the crankset is currently on a Mega Exo BB but didn’t specify which one.

If you're up for shelling out the cash, get the Chris King version because, well, it's Chris King and will last far longer. I cheaped out and bought the Force BB for my Red crank because it was $20. I think even list is still under $50.
