Unqualified to answer on the sub freezing temp and CF question but in general wouldn’t worry about a definitive lifespan on a CF frame. I would highly recommend, however, inspecting the fork steerer and crown. That is probably the highest likelihood failure point. Look for stuff that looks like your very unhappy seat post. I am not familiar with that brand but my 30 year old and 15 year old Colnago CF frames get regular use.
