One of the crowdfunded projects that I found worthwhile to fund was the Hammerhead Bicycle Navigation device. Hammerhead is a simple, smart and social navigation platform for bicycles that also includes local route discovery.
Yesterday after several months, I finally got the Hammerhead that I ordered, I had to pay 29 Euros I custom fee to get the shipment. The Hammerhead came in a nice box with the Hammerhead logo printed on the box, a nice touch.
I open up the box and found the Hammerhead in a display box with all parts. I look really neat the Hammerhead simple but effective design. With the Hammerhead I got a handlebar mounting device and a USB cable to charge the Hammerhead.
The installation on my bike was very easy, all I needed to do was to attach the mount bracket to my TT handlebar, that was easy.
I downloaded the latest Hammerhead mobile app, the Hammerhead app is available on iTunes and on the Google Play store. When I had the app running on my mobile phone, the recommendation is to update the Hammerhead Firmware by connecting the Hammerhead device to the mobile app and update the Firmware.
To learn the initial turn instructions, I followed this video.

So far everything has been very smooth, I’m now ready to do my first bike ride with my Hammerhead, I let you know how that went.
