I worked on several team issue Canyons when engaged for races by one of their top tier athletes at the time. The frames were custom paint and team issue so potentially had extra level of QC to normal ones, possibly not.
The build quality of the frames was the poorest I’ve ever seen in a frame with a logo on the side. PF BB’s that we’re hand pressable in and out, stray material inside, seat tube and stem tolerance for so poor auxiliary means were needed to keep things in place. I’d been so close to buying one of the 27.5 spectrals (those black and gold ones looked great) and immediately decided to look elsewhere.
