Campagnolo had mini v-brake from the Veloce line (BR6-VLCR / silver) or Mirage line (BR6-MIBCR / black). Sourced mine (Veloce) for 45€ the pair used but in perfect shape, with original brake pad support.
Just if it matters to you to have a full Campagnolo bike, they are working with both long-pull and short pull.

Apparently the CX embossed at the back means it is build by Antonio Taverna of Padova (the one of the Vetta brand), and he was built using Cinelli lugs. He was building for another brands too.

Here are my rides.
Look Kg171 with Chorus 12s/campagnolo Zonda (not finished... sent twice the left shifter for warranty... failed before even having done 1m...)
Pinarello Vento with Campagnolo centaur 11s / Mavic OpenC on record hub/older campagnolo skeleton brakes/Athena hoods in white - Keeping silver and white was a challenge. Campagnolo seat post and white SanMarco saddle remain to be installed.

Thanks... never noticed they were different!!! Thank you!
@hacha: If you are not based in the UK, I know where to source a brand new pair of silver centaur skeleton (double+single), or alternatively I have an ok used pair.
@rw101: I have no clue about gliders, but googled the registration and it seems to be: Schempp-Hirth Nimbus 2

Yes, and here is a comment of Nicola Baggio, head of marketing at Campagnolo
One thing Baggio shot down emphatically was the possibility of some sort of neo-retro mechanical groupset offering the latest shifting and braking performance, but with a more classically-styled polished aluminum finish.
“*As a company, we want to look forward. We have to consider trends in the bike market, which is not going in this direction. We don’t want to build heritage, niche products. That’s not the way; that’s not where we want to be. We want to be a premium brand driven by innovation. The heritage story is something that is clearly identified with Campagnolo, but our future is to look forward rather than behind.*”I get the point of not being labelled as "Nostalgia Product", but first they are and yes they might very well miss a trend and a visibility that they miss currently!

All my frame are big size, and big size & steel or 90's carbon frame does not reconcile with rigidity! So yes they are all on the "comfy" side! I am more a casual rider and classic look matters to me, but I am open to mix with modern groupsets.
Your FOCUS with the oversize tubes must be a clear step up when it comes to efficiency! And if you re-purpose your campy 10s on the Poyner, it will make an interesting classic! Does your freewheel is campa on those ambrosio?

I have only 11s campy groupsets, but 10s have the reputation to be better groupsets. Gearing options are more limited though if you are in a hilly place. But I guess you can re-purpose it on the Poyner as it seems to have campy hubs. On my Centaur bike I also sourced older style brakes as they were real skeleton.

yes it is discontinued. It was from a time of the first hub dynamo and halogen lamp that had no switch as the bottle dynamo was the switch originally! But widely available and a rather neat solution.
here for GBP10 shipped (or GBP8 without the connector that you don't need)

disconnecting is not really an option, connector won't hold after a week!
