Cantilever brake and stem options
Using this Mavic headset with cantilever brakes, do I have any other options than a stem with a hole? I’ve searched for clamp on stops but can’t find any small enough to clamp onto the 22.2 stem. Thanks

Fork crown mounted hangers solve a lot of problems
Either a basic stop, like this one:
or the evolution of the Suntour power hanger, which conveniently replaces both the hanger and straddle.

The silver Tektro 1277A shown above with the cable stop is my favorite as the cable runs directly to it, like a caliper brake. So no more fiddling with the cable if you change your bar height.
Most will show the silver ones out of stock, but BikeToolsEtc has them, search for TK-1277A.

BTW- former member Crank_Addict had one or 2 bikes set up with the Suntour Power Hanger- and he loved it.
I just like having cool, fun cable yokes. Who can resist having an Avid Tri-Dangle on their bike?

The OP has a Mavic 305/315 headset, which uses a single piece race/locknut design. They’re easier to adjust than a traditional 2 piece design, and stay in adjustment better, but do not accept spacers or steerer mounted hangers as you’ve suggested. Here’s a diagram that might help.

I went with the basic fork mount stop. I like how it replaces the hideous fender bolt. Thanks for all the replies.

These magic Power Hanger things are epic! I had no clue about them! Now if only traditional canti setups didn't look so right...
I have used the vertical fork-mounted Tektro hangers before, and have a pair. Great products.

I've had a few bikes with the QR on the hanger like the one pictured but Suntour or Dia Compe IIRC, the ones I had were usually a pain to get open so I don't think there was any danger of them coming open accidentally. But yeah, if you got one that didn't lock as well as the ones I had it could be a real bad day.
I think I still have a couple bikes with them I haven't built yet. I'll check them to make sure they lock properly, thanks for the heads up.

They all take some size of "nudge" to release.
At a minimum the nudge must overcome the brake spring(s).
I've never worried about that size nudge happening accidentally.
Neither do I worry about the wheels - held on with a similar over-centre action - falling off.

Many brake qr mechanisms rely on an over-centre action, either a toggle, or a detent, or a rotating barrel.
