I was unsure about these stand when I got them. I love the vintage 50s/60s look of them but I was unsure whether it could hold a heavy cymbal and even more could with stand a 'Rock' gig. Well it can!! I use it for my Sabian HHX Legacy Heavy Ride which weights a ton and it has no problem holding it. What's better is that ive gigged it loads playing everything from heavy rock to jazz or funk. Definitely worth getting one, one at least and give it a try. you wont regret it. The one thing I would say about it is that it does have a slight wobble. Nothing bad and you wouldn't notice it when your playing. It's fine though i swear.
Its amazingly light, and it folds up amazingly. I can't recommend it more
