Chris:
I don't know how many mfrs made centerpulls for recessed binders. Zeus most likely did. If you are planning to hang non-recessed mounting centerpull or sidepull brakes of any stripe on a frame intended for recessed, you have a few options:
Rivendell sells nylon bushings for such a conversion:

You can also make your own by drilling out a recessed nut to clear the fitting bolt and filing the head flat so that it doesn't protrude beyond the crown.
