Review: "I think I'm right in saying that Zildjian's Earth ride cymbals were originally made in Canada, but Sabian's version has taken the artform just a little further forward. Instead of just casting and rolling their 20" 'Leopard Ride' £180, they hammer it too, and give it a 'brilliant'finish. (All Sabian cymbals, by the way, are available with brilliant finish at no extra cost.) The one I saw was an HH 20 and I found it very articulate and with a few more overtones than the Earth. I suppose you could describe it as more usable in general terms, even though they are both very much specialist instruments. As far as the 'Leopard Ride' itself goes it has more or less the same sound all over although it is slightly higher pitched at the bell and harder too. The bell itself is really strident and there is some build up of sound if you play on the very outside."

Review: "I was surprised by the 20" Ride: because of its construction it has a some-what deep and mellow tone which I feel would be well suited for more Jazzy applications. There was no real blur at high speed and dynamically all the beats were distinct."
