FYI for anyone using Hammerhead and di2. As of today Shimano has requested that Hammerhead remove all di2 functionality since they are owned by SRAM. If you update your Hammerhead you will lose di2 functionality.

Just saw this on DC Rainmaker's channel yesterday. I realize your post was informational. Mine is editorial. I think Shimano is screwing up here, big time.
Almost everyone else in the community has shared their data openly on ANT+. Shimano has chosen to continue to operate on proprietary ANT. When they pull shenanaigans like this, the one who is hurt is the customer.
I am a lifelong Shimano fan. Never ridden anything else and found myself perusing SRAM groups yesterday to see what might be the most economical path to switch my bikes over. A bit extreme perhaps, but I refuse to support Shimano in their border wars... a position that I bet will ultimately cost them.

I was intrigued by Hammerhead and I was leaning towards trying one.
