Review: "Straight away the 20" Medium ride manages to chalk up several good points. Stick definition is exemplary, with the clarity of a top pro cymbal, quite woody and focused. The bell is a corker and when you crash the cymbal's edge there is an enjoyably deep and effusive roar.

It's only to be expected, as fashioning an exceptionally good ride is the hardest thing, rides being the most complex of cymbals, requiring the most extensive qualities. Where the 20" Medium's toppy vigour does pay off though is when you move along and up to the bell, which is especially strong, bright and resonant. A shining beacon."

Review: "The rides are medium thin to rock in weight. To be honest, for me, they’re all slightly leaning towards being a bit heavier, but the medium thin has the best blend of stick definition and wash. The good thing is that if for some reason the rides are too heavy for you, try a medium thin 20” crash. There are options! Regardless, even though, they’re heavier, there’s still a great sound – bright and full without that annoying gong tone that sometimes-cheaper cymbals can have."
