Detail 01
Power weight
Thicker than a standard ride, so it stays articulate at high volume instead of washing out into a roar.

PaisteRude Power Ride 20"
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A heavy 20" ride built for volume. For rock and metal drummers who need stick definition to survive loud guitars and cymbal-heavy playing.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Loud rock, punk and metal gigs with no mic support
- Drummers who ride hard and crack cymbals
- Players wanting a clear ping over a wash
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Jazz, brushes or quiet room playing
- Drummers who want a dark, complex, washy ride
- Anyone needing a soft, easily coaxed crash from their ride
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
20 inch diameter
The common ride size. Enough surface for a defined bell-to-edge spread without the sluggish feel of 22 inches.
Detail 03
Rude series
Built for raw cut and durability rather than nuance. It projects instead of blending.
Detail 04
Bell on a heavy ride
A thick bell reads loud and cutting, so bell patterns punch through a full band.
Detail 05
$470
Professional-tier pricing. This is a career cymbal, not a starter piece.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Cymbal only. Stand, felts, sleeve and wingnut are separate
- 02Heavy rides need a sturdy stand; light tripods will wobble
- 03Too loud for apartments and small teaching rooms
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I crash on this ride?
You can, but a heavy Power ride resists. It takes a hard shoulder hit and answers with a thick, slow swell rather than a fast crash.
02Is 20 inches big enough for rock?
Yes. 20 inches is the standard ride size and the Power weight, not the diameter, is what gives it volume and cut.
03Will this work for jazz?
Not really. It is built for stick definition at high volume, so it lacks the dark wash and quick decay most jazz playing wants.
04Does it come with a stand?
No. This is the cymbal alone. Budget for a boom or straight stand plus felts and a sleeve.
