OK, the problem turned out to be me, naturally. The solution was to use a hotspot instead of my hotel's wifi. Previously, I'd neglected the step of connecting the Bolt to the hotspot by turning to...

So, an update: tightening up the bottom bracket did indeed make the front shifting work better. But, you know what?, my shifting was never very good. I soon developed a problem indexing my rear...

Another update

My front derailleur now shifts great. I repacked the bottom bracket and eliminated that bit of slop. However, I think the biggest factor was that remounting the front chain ring and crank arm...

I had to play around a bit with a lever -- using a pen and two fingers -- but I get what you're saying. Brilliant. I may try that with my beat-up derailleur (while I wait for its replacement) just to...

Yep, my bike (1990 Stumpjumper) came stock with a bottom-pull front derailleur. So, that's the type of replacement I'm getting. I'm unclear, however, on what your suggestion accomplishes. I think I...
