Review: "I suppose the most striking of them is the 'Roctagon'. As its name suggests it has eight sides and is based on a 20" 'crash' cymbal with a traditional profile, selling at £125. Since it's a Rock crash it's quite thick, and at first I was concerned about excessive stick wear from the flat edges. I must say that I didn't actually notice anything untoward. (Of course if you were to play the cymbal edge-on you would definitely end up with a lot of wood shavings on the floor!) 'Roctagon' has a very heavy, and consequently rather slow sound, but with a lot of balls."
