Review: "All the Meteors have a reassuring weight to them, and this was nowhere more appreciated than with the 20" Ride. Its bell sound has many of the same drawbacks as the crash, being something less than sparkling and not as meaty, level-wise as it might be. Yet despite the struggling volume, it's solid and piercing enough. Stick response is consistent across the whole surface, and I found a number of tonal variations were possible between the bell and the outer edge - not something you'd expect from a cymbal in this price category. The volume is slightly disappointing and the depth of sound leaves a bit to be desired, but fast ride beats remain controlled and articulate, with a marked lack of overtone build-up."
