6004 should be the correct size but surely it wont be loose to fit them.

are you sure the size is written on the bearing itself ?

sorry lost me on that one.

6004 is stamped in to the side of the "sealed" part of the bearings.
dug out my microfiche and checked the part numbers/qty. yes they are the same.

Ensure you buy DDU or 2RS bearings i.e. double sealed - other wise any debris inside the wheel will quickly kill a single sealed bearing - save £2 waste a load.

yep they are double sealed.
rear bearings now in. will do the fronts when i get the wheel off next time round.

BTW.. whacking your thumb with a mallet when the drift slips off the bearing edge HURTS LIKE HELL!...
