What model schwinn m.t.b.?

[bits n pieces]

I found this recently and it doesnt say the model anywhere. It says tri-oval and chromoly on a little sticker on the frame. It looks to be mid 90s to me but im not sure. I havent found a mountain bike site yet but am working on it. Any help or guidance to finding out the model is much appreciated.

I dunno...but to me that decalwork screams late 80's

Does that have canti mounts on the chain stays? :? That's pretty unusual, may help to pin it down.

U-Brake under the chainstays. Normal for most early mountain bikes.

I figured on late 80s. It has exage components. It is blue fading into chrome. It does have the brakes under the chainstays.Im checking into it being a sierra. Thank you all!
