Machine built wheels tend to do that.I got a pinnacle touring bike over a year and a half ago, six or seven spokes on the back wheel broke after about three months so I had to have them all replaced. Not expensive but a pain in the arse still.
For balance though, there has been no other issue and the Schwalbe tyres it came with haven't had one puncture and I have done well over 5k miles on it.
Some manufacturer's worse than others (the Gippiemi wheels in supplied with one of my bikes are terrible).
My experience of Schwalbe is the opposite of yours. The puncture resistant Durano on my road bike were so often punctured that I threw then away.
The Racing Ralfs I had on my MTB were about as much use too.
I like Panaracer tyres but they're not as widely available now that the ghastly Schwalbe are everywhere.
Don't use Canyon.Wife looking for a new “ best bike” but so many places have little or no stock...Canyon forget it and the other online sites not much better.
Their warranty isn't worth the paper it's written on.
Their customer service is shocking too
