Always used a star nut before but just got a Hope headset

Any point using the Head Doctor?

If you already have a SFN then there's not much point in removing it. If you have a new fork/steerer then the Hope part is, in my opinion, the nicer option.

I use one. Don't have an sfn tool so it seemed the best option.

Plus it came in red.

I've got one with the forks I bought, seems pretty good to me I was using a USE ring-no-star but this seems easier to adjust and more solid.

HDs are fine unless you're clumsy, in which case your next post will be about snapping bolts

Wouldn't pull out a sfn just to get it in there though, as 3F says

they are a nicer looking and more solid alternative to a star fangled nut, but I wouldn't have one if it hadn't have come with the headset.
they're a bugger if they get jammed in too.

Handy if you have a carbon steerer...
