Can I fit Sram red 22 crank arms to my 1x chainrings

[alolympic]

So, scenario is: gravel bike with GXP bottom bracket has Sram Force 1x crankset. Uses spider to mount to chainring.

I have a Sram Red 22 crankset off my road bike which I just sold so is now spare. The Sram Red crank arms have an integrated spider so the drive side arm connects straight to the chainring.

Can I just fit the Red crank arms to the 44t chainring and run my preferred shorter crank length and even lighter 1x set up?

If they use the same BCD then the chainring would fit, but chain line might be different on Red.

I think one is 110 and one 130 BCD so sprocket won't fit.

It's a challenge finding larger (42T+) tooth narrow wide sprockets too...

So, with no specific red flag I have gone ahead and answered my own question.

Force chainring now mounted direct to Red cranks. Saved 109g in weight and in my preferred 167.5mm crank length.
Quick test around the block showing seems to be fine!

Sorry to dig this up but I'm trying to do the same thing on a recently purchased set up, was the Force chainring you used a standard 1x 110bcd ring?

I have mounted a hidden bolt ring onto the direct mount crankset with the thread in the back of the crank arm (never knew SRAM made these) like this, but I couldn't get the thread part out of the chainring so rotated it one bolt hole round and it seems to fit, I just had to use the male chainring bolt on the other side of the threaded insert only. If this doesn't hold I guess I'll either have to figure a way to push the threaded hidden bolt part out or just get a new ring

Cheers
