PhilDAS-
Quit last week unfortunately!!
It'll be a doddle mate, people just get overly loud when BB30/A gets mentioned and there's no reason for it. It's a good system, albeit made by a company that likes to fuck around. hence the SISL stuff, which I dig. Most of the creaking is down to assembly and not design.
Saying that though, they're everywhere now and it'd be nice to see this as an all road whip in matching gear.

I don't know what era RED you have so this is from some experience, but not exact.
Essentially a DIY method (same as using BBright BB's on BB30A for Shimano stuff) which will work, it's just not the cleanest method.
The BB is asymmetric towards the NDS, so that's where you'll make your adjustment, as doing it DS will just fuck shit up.
Un-thread preload adjuster. Install bearing cap, washers then a wavy washer. How many depends really. Till there's no play, but it's not too stiff.
