Chris-

Thanks for your offer. I've been investigating this posibility, and the 20v
and 10v 90s take the same rotor, 256 x 22 mm. The only difference is that the
offset is different for the 20v. The offset, to my knowledge, is how far the
rotor is from the wheel, no?

Wouldn't this mean that the brakes are equal in terms of braking power and
that a switch to 10 calipers wouldn't hurt? Or does it mean that a switch to
10v calipers wouldn't be possible without changing the hubs/struts as well?

Hmm...
