Found these front and rear brakes and Very unique brake levers on a motorized bike I picked up last weekend. I've looked all over the internet and cannot find the exact ones ANYWHERE!! ANY HELP Identifying these would be greatly appreciated and also if they are worth anything? If not I'm just gonna use em in my next build .They remind me of some older Motocross style levers . I mean the levers themselves are about 5½ inches long!! Thanks in Advance guys.it says "STAR" on the Levers and also if you look real close it also says "STAR" On the top of the brake pads as well ..

Cool levers for sure. Chang Star. I’ve seen the calipers on several later 80s cruisers, Dia Compe copies.

Edit- I google image searched ‘Chang star brake levers’ these came up-

Have never seen a pair like that but the regular ones where on lots of old mountain bikes .
I have them on a couple of my bikes that have drum brakes work great for that .
