Turkish Cymbals 21" Ride

The 21-inch ride combines the clarity of a 20" with more body and longer sustain. It's the favorite size of many pros because it offers ping definition and a full, carrying wash at the same time. Every 21" at Cymballand is handcrafted in Istanbul from pure B20 bronze (80% copper, 20% tin).

Series in this size

In 21 inches the range runs from the dry Dark Hammer to the polished Rock Beat Raw for rock and metal, and the custom-finished NJG. The versatile Studio, the smooth Rhythm & Soul and the warm Xanthos-Jazz cover funk, soul and fusion. You'll find more sizes in our ride cymbals overview.

What a 21-inch ride is made for

The slightly larger diameter makes the 21" an ideal main ride: enough definition for fast patterns, enough volume to carry through loud passages. Lean into it and a full wash opens up without losing stick definition – the balance that defines a professional ride.
