I have a Raleigh MTB from the same era, got lots of similar styling points, pretty sure its Taiwan made, but deffo got `usa designed' on the decals.

it lives in France, so I can't nip and take a piccy!!!

It was an insurance replacement for my old ally Marin that got nicked and wasn't fully covered by the insurance, I ended up with £250 to replace a £900 bike (in the mid `90's) so Raleigh it was, and, to be honest, its been a great bike, I upgraded the group set before I collected it from the shop and it now runs on slics.

Raleigh ain't all bad, well, it wasn't then!!

Think them'ns are reeeal late 90's/post 2000 catalogue bikes. 4130 Tai made and that, done under different names dependent on region and probably renamed by Raleigh over the different product years (same bike).

Not my cup of tea at all but here's the Total Bike review for them (under the 'Juicer' name):
