Let's clear the field: if you use 24" rides and 20" crashes, and you like to beat them hard, you might want to reconsider your choice to buy this set. But if you are that kind of drummer, you already knew that. I personally paired those with one of these low sound sets (with cymbals sized 14" and 18") and they are just on the spot: they do their job astonishingly well and I personally find them also very stylish, which is another plus. It is surely true that you might be a bit disappointed, when you first unpack them: they look skinny, and you start to worry. No need for that though: they are stable and reliable. Additionally, the moment after you have finished to play them and you put them back in the included bag, you forget about any doubts you might have had at first and start to pour tears of joy, for how light they are. Be careful! Before you notice, you would want to sell your other around 20-Kgs set and never look back!
