Are they mk1 skyway EZ bars??
GT performer forks had the tall dropouts but i think the dropouts had holes in, Those forks look bent.

I think they're prob redline. If you take them off  there might be a paper sticker round the steerer tube with some kind of instructions on it . If not they could be cyclecraft or zeronine
