Fork mounted hanger is a good shout, the logic behind it seems sound. I'm still not convinced by cantis though, I used them when I was a mere whippersnapper out on the trails. Now that I'm 3 stone heavier and riding in traffic I'm not convinced they would give me the grip I wanted.
@Aroogah are you using standard (caliper/canti) levers with your v-brakes? That would explain the sponginess. I've got a travel agent you could try if you want, although you'd need to buy a second if you decide that it does work.
