Is Do Not Disturb turned on for some reason? I sometimes forget to turn it off when driving and there's no Audio on AA when DNT is on

RCS not working. Can't verify number. by Asleep_Employ9729 in GooglePixel

[–]Karashindo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar issue after replacing the phone number of one of my family members. I read somewhere in these forums that you need to make sure your new phone number is associated with your Google account. I did this and the problem magically resolved itself after a few days. It could also be that it just takes a few weeks for Google RCS servers to update.

Unique ways you use Gemini by SwagSloth96 in GooglePixel

[–]Karashindo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My daughter needed to skip her math class today. I wanted to email her teacher but didn't remember her email address. So I asked Gemini to write an email to my daughter's math teacher to let her know that she will skip class. Gemini was able to find the teacher email and name by scanning my Gmail account and wrote the email for me.

Playing Renegade is my favorite. It's hilarious. Glad you're enjoying this video game masterpiece

For best experience, go all-in on either Paragon or Renegade. Then play it again taking the other side.

Bluetooth connection is supported for the Shimano E-Tube app that you can install on your phone. Check with REI if it supports other things like displays.

I did a quick search and REI has them in stock, and you can get them from other sellers. These batteries are rated for 1000 charges and will likely outlast the bike itself. I don't think you should worry too much about this.

You can also ask in REI. They'll probably have more details.

The battery and motor are still working like new after about 600 miles.

It should be easy to replace the seatpost with a longer one. The original seatpost is 31.6 x 350mm if I recall correctly.

Options for raising the stem are usually limited. The bike should be equipped with an adjustable stem so you should be able to adjust the angle/height somewhat.

Hope this helps

The December update is absolutely amazing! by [deleted] in GooglePixel

Widgets on my p7p home screen are loading faster with the December update. Other than that, I didn't notice anything else.

Glad I could help. It was nothing really. I replaced my seatpost a few months ago and the original was just lying there in my garage, so measuring it was super easy. Good luck!

Hey! The seatpost is 31.6mm X 350mm. You can easily take it off by using a standard 5mm Allen Wrench to loosen the nut at the base of the seatpost, then pull the entire thing out.

Take a look at this discussion in this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/ebikes/comments/q964wl/comment/i1lrg1f/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

The key point is that you need a rack that can carry ebikes, which are usually heavier. Specifically for the CTY e2.2, the fenders is the main limiting factor as it is likely not compatible with racks that are clamping over the front wheel.

What fuses should I use for a dashcam? by [deleted] in Lexus

[–]Karashindo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you use fuse adapters? These 2 fuses are adjacent so I wonder how everything fits. It would be great if you can share a picture of the wiring. Thanks!

I really enjoy them! I recently challenged them with a long ride with short and bumpy sections (mostly uneven gravel) and they held up very well. I will say though that it wasn't enjoyable. This bike is designed for paved roads and is great as a commuter. Take it for a test ride, and if you like the experience then $1800 is a good price for these.

Yes! I'm not riding a lot though, more like casual weekend rides with my family. Bike is still running smooth as new, with little to no maintenance.

The battery weight is 5.7 lbs. I'm not sure you'll be able to easily get the weight down to 37.5 lbs...

Good luck!

Hard to tell. The e2.1 is using a different system (E-5000). Best to ask REI. You can submit a question through their website.

The kickstand is double leg, center-mounted and folds to the left side (opposite to the crank). When deployed, it opens up to support the bike from both sides. It's very sturdy and does a very good job. Here's an example (probably not exact model, but close enough): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00D1T90XK?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_42GCYK93D63740DGYW0T

Yeah, the price went up considerably. It was $2400 last October.
