Looks like an Alien, but there were several knock-offs also. Here is the 1990 Nishiki Alien ACX lit, and you can see that the rear triangle is completely different.

It could also be a Saracen - but seeing where you're located, unlikley

Nishiki Alien. 
Is that not an Ariel?
Thought the Alien's all had separate rear triangles, whereas the Ariel was one-piece (figuratively speaking...)?

After looking through every copy of MBA from 1989 to 1993, I'm pretty sure it's a 1993 Alien SP. Mr. K has one pictured in his gallery.

definitely an alien sp. the earlier alien al had the strengthened rear e-stay like the acx in repack rider's post. but then they dropped it for the sp. think they did the sp from about late '91 to about '93 (but don't quote me on that :? )
