I decided to take an Ultegra Hollowtech II BB that I had laying around and put some Phil Wood bearings in the cups ($50).

Suffice it to say, the Dura Ace Hollowtech II cups are my back ups now. The Shimano / Phil Wood combo spins better than my old ceramic Red BB did. (This is all perceived feel, of course.) But you can't argue with the price.
