I am just about order the Canyon Ultimate CF SL 2016 MY, once Caynon confirm the sponsorship prices for the new models, as I have a race license.
I have been planning out the build for this bike and noticed that the bottom bracket is Shimano ( I'll be using DA9000 crankset) Pressfit BB86. I've had bad experience with BB30 bottom brackets in the past creaking and successfully used the Praxisworks adapter. I had assumed I could use a similar adapter from Praxisworks for the BB86 however, Praxisworks only support PF30,B30 and Specialised OSBB standards.
The only option I can find is the new Enduro Torqtite. http://endurobearings.com/technology/torqtite/
What are other owners views?
Do you have creaking issues with PF86? If so what solutions have you used?
What adapter options are available besides the new Enduro? I am looking for threaded options like the Praxisworks.
Thanks for the advice.

Canyon, Giant Scott and countless others use the shimano PF86 bottom bracket.
There's nothing up with it. Its not a conversion and i've got 2 bikes with the same BB and both are as quiet as a mouse.

I have a De Rosa with a BB86 bottom bracket that has Campagnolo BB cups pressed in.
When I first got the bke after a few rides it started creaking like hell. I took it back to the mechanic that built the bike and he removed the cups then re-installed them after applying some Loctite 609 retaining compound. Solved.

I have an Ultimate CF SLX with a cyclingceramic 41/30 BB (just released). After almost 3000km, there is still no creaking at all and the smoothness is incredible. It's even better than the Sram XX ceramic of my MTB. I would not go back to a threaded BB or a steel BB. A good ceramic BB handmade in Europe worth it for bikes above $3000.
That's a shame to build high end bikes with BB whose the cost is less than $5... but it's a detail that people don't watch in a bike shop or through Internet, prefering checking wheels and transmission.

Here are 2 links where you can check the super smoothness of my BB86 with Rotor Inpower:

I precise that the bearings have about 2500km and have never been serviced. They have inside a large quantity of grease and they are good to work in super rainy conditions.
I could remove the grease and make the smootness more spectacular, but I thing that the gain would not be sensitive in terms of watts.
