I've never lacked power on 160s fully laden with hydros, I did whack 4pot calipers on though. The cheaper diverge forks are shit anyway, poorly finished so really hard to route cables though with bits of carbon blocking the holes and the hole nearest the caliper is too close to the caliper so has a horrible bend in with cable brakes, I just assumed they'd got something else wrong too and the easy solution was to run the adapters at 140 with 160 rotors. Trek forks are much nicer with a proper internal sleeve for the cable, just pops right through.
