[Closed] Replacing bearings on Mavic CrossRide wheels

I have a set of Mavic CrossRides that have developed a bit of play in the bearings. Are the bearings readily available from most places? have found [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=29467 ]THESE[/url] on CRC but they dont mention which wheels they are for, can anyone advise?

Also, is it an easy-ish job to do? (i've never done something like this before but want to give it a go)

Think i'll replace both front and back whilst i'm at it.

no idea about bearing replacements, but you can adjust the play/tightness on crossrides: they have spanner flats on them similar in appearance to shimano ones, and some blurb in the instructions about it. I never needed to on mine (since sold on classifieds here) but I think the process was just like shimano ones ie loosen outer one, nip up inner one and tighten outer one again to lock together.
