Where's the seat clamp bolt? Looks like it's flush on the left side? (first picture is kind of blurry)
Glad they moved the water bottle lower on the seat tube.
Also looks like Quintana needs a seat post with less setback, or 0-setback.

Whoa! Size Medium 665g!!! I'm kind of falling in love with that matte black build up there, minus those hideous rings. haha

4.8kg build. My buddy has last years SLX and that bike it a rocket in the hills.

This roadbike.de article tells about the new EVO model.
Use google translate to read in english.

"About racing bike: Canyon Ultimate CF SLX Evo
From the Ultimate CF SLX there will be a super lightweight version: the Canyon Ultimate CF SLX Evo . Equipped with THM Fibula brakes, THM Clavicula crank SE, Lightweight Obermayer wheels and Sram Red circuit to the Canyon Ultimate CF SLX Evo weigh just 4.8 kg.

The frame is like outside the standard framework of the Ultimate CF SLX. However, when the Evo version other carbon fibers are used. In addition, the layup of the carbon mats of the Ultimate CF SLX differs normal. Thus, the frame weight can be pressed by the manufacturer at the Canyon Ultimate CF SLX Evo to an astonishing 665 grams (size M).

Unfortunately, the price is a superlative. The Canyon Ultimate CF SLX Evo is expected to cost 13,000 euros."

Here is my google translated quote.

The german roadbike.de article about the new Ultimate CF SLX is keep chaning its content and new information about the disc version of the Ultimate has been added.

"Canyon plant Ultimate Disc-Version für 2017
On the edge of the presentation of the Ultimate CF SLX Canyon announced a disc version of Ultimate 2017. The Canyon team will test a disc prototype is expected in September. In spring, the team will then be on the road already with the production version of a Canyon Ultimate Disc. The Canyon Ultimate disc should then be available for the model 2017 (probably in autumn 2016 so)."

This is the google translated story so the english is not perfect.
