I have used Cane Creek interrupter levers with V brakes. While not the best for stopping power because of the shorter cable pull, they will slow the bike if the pads are set fairly close. The "regular" levers were the long pulls offered by Tektro, and one could feel the difference. Another option would be to use mini V's, which still have decent stopping power and don't require the longer cable pull.
