Large raw bell
The bell is a central part of the cymbal’s increased crashability.

Independent shopping perspective
Built around a large raw bell, the 20-inch AAX X-Plosion Ride combines balanced ride response with a stronger crash role. The bell is designed to increase its crashability, while the X-Plosion process adds sustain. In practice, it covers lighter ride patterns without limiting you to a purely ride-focused part, then can be played hard when the arrangement calls for a crash.
