you changed the angle the wheel enters the dropout? if that is not how it was fixed, doesn't that mean the issue you reported is not really what is wrong?
What I originally suspected was part of the issue (#2). It is a contributor. There is no reported issue, they don't record it.
As I posted above there are two things:
1 - the dropout angle has the wheel move out of dropouts under power (as opposed to into the dropout under power)
2 - Hardened steel plates minimize the grip that resists the wheel from coming out.
FWIW an un-clamped Cannondale EVO or MASI could not lose a wheel under power.
Ask your friends if they agree. Ask them if they think it may be different than other models. Ask them is anything like steel plates have changed from year to year.
And I'd be happy to speak to a technical person.
