They were available off CRC under the model number IIRC? Bought a pair a couple of weeks back.

just look on the bearing race and it should tell you the measurements. i did the same with my s8. the stock bearings are proper gash, its been a lot better since i bought some aftermarket ones.

I had a knacked set of bearings in my Cane Creek S2 headset and Mike Cooksons in Whitefield sorted me out. I took the old ones out and took off the seals and then greased them up to use until I could be bothered swapping them, and they lasted another 12 months.....

..I know I should have swapped them when I was doing all that messing, but I'm tight..
