Does such a thing exist?
Wanted to run a Ringle quill stem on a FAT but struggling to find a suitable cable hanger? Do they even exist?

I prefer this first style rather than the type that fits into the headset…

Might have something vintage in the drawer, I'll look on sat @Silverfish

The headset fitting hangers can kill the headset or fork threads with the brake leverage, so stem fit is preferable, but inch (22.2) was a lot rarer than 1&1/8 quill fitting.

A popular alternative is to fit a kona style hanger mounted on the fork crown - we sell them new from diacompe, tektro and problemsolvers.
Less prone to fork judder if you've got a nice fork and powerful brake

The Paul's price is a bit baffling, you could probably get something custom machined locally if you want to spend that much.🤣

You jest....my old boss wouldn't have even looked at your drawing for the price of a pauls hanger😂.
Sometimes local model engineering shop or vintage motorcycle establishments have a tame machinist willing to get out of bed for a fistful of tenners 🤔
 
Unlike a lot of other manufacturers of tuning parts for mtbs Paul managed to not get bought out, stay alive and keep production in the US scince the 80s.
They must be doing something right.

There's room at the top for a few boutique brands, but they have to be dedicated, good at their job and read the market well to survive without failing or being consumed by bigger fish.

I don't think there are so many manufacturers of workaday components left in Europe or the USA🙄
Sedis>sachs>sram chains, made in Portugal spring to mind.

SJS do a Tektro one for under a tenner, but for Fat/Ringle, Paul’s would seem more fitting.
That's 25.4, fits an inch and an eighth quill.
