Well, one way to find out: I'll check for the set-screw in the next few 
days, right now the E20 is parked in the nice shed.

I have noticed that my E20 burns down one puck (outside one) while the 
other one has very little wear. Yes, the brake is on a floating pair of 
tubes, but I think a moving disc would allow more even application of 
the caliper halves.

One way to find out...
