Hey,
I have tightened the upper bottle cage screw to 2 Nm (2.5 Nm torque is written for that spot) on my Speedmax CF 7 Di2 (2025) with a torque wrench. Later i decided as i won’t need that cage spot, I will replace it with a rubber cover. As I removed that screw i noticed that it chipped of some of the paint. I wonder that this was because the screw was tighten to 2 Nm? Even if that is lower that the maximum torque? Or is it some kind of paint-quality issue?
Thanks for your answers

Looks like the head of the screw was stuck to the paint, hence stripped the paint out when undone (regardless of tightening torque). Perhaps sugary drink fell on it?
What tool box are you running? Is that a canyon or after market?
It looks good
There is something missing. The bolts usually don’t touch the surface directly. On all of my frames there is a ridge around the rivet. Contact Canyon.
