I have campy chorus 11 sp with V Brakes on my CX bike. I’m thinking of making it a flat bar bike switching to one of the Shimano groups like Tiara or Soma. What can I keep on my current build? Are all Shimano trigger shifters compatible with TRP V brakes?

Not much..will need shifters, ders(both), 10s cogset/chain..you can keep the crankset and yes, the brake levers are V brake compatible, at least try them..you 'may' need to get longer arm-ed V Brakes.
