What Do I have here?

Picked up this exceptionally nice Traveler mixte recently in a 2 bike deal and was getting ready to do the clean/lube thing when I noticed the seat tube sticker said, “4130 Double Butted Main Tubes, Frame built in America.” Head badge stamped 0925 (92nd day of 1985?), serial # under bottom bracket SCxxxxxx (below that stamped 843). Suntour AR drs, , Sugino crank, Schwinn Approved (Japan) center pulls, wheels “Schwinn Approved Made in France.”

I know about the cro mol main tubes thing, but I thought all middle/low end Schwinn road bikes by 1985 had frames from Taiwan or Japan. Any info appreciated. Thanx.
