1991 Alpinestars Al-mega XT

Top of the down tube doesn’t look right to me.
That's a reweld, or at the very least a precautionary bead of weld to shore up the signs of cracking. The 1991 bikes were notorious for cracking around the head tube area. The following year there was a gusset added to avoid this issue.

So both overpriced and repaired at some stage....
