If you can find out what size of cartridge bearings the mega exo uses why don't you just swap out the bearings. You'll need to find a LBS with a bearing press.

I've bought some loose ceramic bearings from Boca for my hubs, so I can recommend them.

Try Superfly, they have great stuff, really good products, and the shipping is free if over $100. I got their replacement bottom bracket for my megaexo, and then pulleys for my rear derailleur. Both are great.
