No offense , but 1, it's paiste and 2, Ndugu isn't exactly my favorite ride cymbal player. Whats the catch? :)

Although this particular ride is too heavy for my taste, Paiste makes some of the nicest cymbals I've ever heard or played, and I've played plenty.

That's why I wrote no offense, just my opinion. Not that I think 'drummer's that play Paiste have no taste', that would rule out my favs. Bonham especially. They break real easy and Paiste's creative process is not creative. They don't make their own complex. They are cookie cutter cymbals. It's just how I feel based on the sound and the info I know about their cymbal making process. To each their own.

Not creative? Break easy? Cookie cutter cymbals? Now that is funny.

I want to know if it comes with rubber grommets for vertical mounting?

Or a reinforcement to avoid keyholing?

For the record, I love a lot of the Paiste lines, have played them for over 20 years, and have never cracked one....
