Looking at the bottom bracket, the number are "3AR074" . Under that series is a "N"
Its a Competition model.
I was expecting 700c so I was surprised to see the 27s.
Having said that, it really deosnt appear that there is any adjstment left to move the pads down further.

I have a 1987 Raleigh Technium 440 12 speed that came with 27" Araya rims and 1 1/8" tires. I could mount 1 3/8" tires on my bike, but mainly ran 1 1/4". Have since gone to 700C wheels with 32mm tires and changed out the brakes for some longer reach ones. And upgraded to Tiagra 4600. Its so much more usable now.
