Red brakes won't fit on SL2?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Red brakes won't fit on SL2?

I have a set of SRAM Red brakes I was going to put on my new SL2 frame. The Front nor Rear brake will thread into the threading nut. The front one is not long enough and the rear nut won't fit in the hole for the brake.

Anywhere to buy different ones?

Thanks.
