Performance Forte levers have a cable end position for either cantis "C" or Vee "V" and work well with road cantilevers Set up my road bike with them and have had no problems stoping even on steep mountain road.
As for the intermediate lever there is a setup I have seen on roadbikes that uses the cable housing as a stop and when you squeeze the lever it lengthens the effective cable housing relative to the cable. I think that this is a setup that would work for you. This is a relatively common setup.
