I'm looking to purchase an older EE brake caliper, looks like the 2015 version, but not shure.
It's the "aero" version, with an... aero cover.

Question is: Is it an older version and won't accomodate 25 mm wide rims ? Or will it be ok ?

its really the same brake. i bought this one originally...and when the newer style came out, Craig Edwards sent me the new bridge and all i did is swap that out. so to answer your question...yes it will accommodate wider rims. the way that eeCycles acheived this was to use different thickness washers. there were 3 different thicknesses all dependent upon how wide your rims were.
