B90, I am almost certain, refers to it having a 90mm brake. So to fit an AKJJ you'll have to bend the brakes quite a bit.

Other than that, they're a solid binding. Bear in mind that the DIN range starts at 9 on them and while they'll be absolutely fine at 9 they're more geared towards skiers riding maybe 11 DIN up. If you're riding below 10 DIN I'd be inclined to recommend the FKS140/Pivot 14 instead.

Yep B90 just means that there a 90 mm brake. The STH 16 has not changed in a few seasons, so the 2010 model is the same as the current ones. Great binding I have them on all my skis.

Brake wise hopefully the shop who mount them will have some 130 mm brakes in stock and they might just swap them for you as your brakes will be brand new.
