Default 20mm convert by Mavic?

I was in Performance after my meeting with Thinkfast about the Santa that I sold to him and noticed that they had a Crossmax wheel with a 20mm thuaxle...so now Im wondering, which ones can be converted? As Mavic makes so many wheels, Im not educated on the different Mavic wheels. So if some one is savy in this realm I would be most grateful for any education I can get.

Coming from someone who has very limited knowledge of the Mavic product line, what you saw, I am guessing, is a Crossmax SX wheel. I believe they come only in 20 mm for a light freeride/AM wheel.

My crossmax Xl's are converted easily. Simply pop out the old cup and put the new ones on... Came with both sets of cups.

While in Japan, I saw a couple shops that had Mavic 20 mm axles on display and they said SL or ST on them (couldn't read the rest). And considering that the CrossMax 29 wheelset is available in 20mm axles, perhaps some others can be converted.
