Choose the Istanbul Agop 19" Lenny White Epoch Crash if you need a crash cymbal, or the 24" Turk Flat Ride if you need a flat ride. Your intended role in the kit matters more than size alone.
These Istanbul Agop models serve different purposes rather than being direct alternatives. The 19" Lenny White Epoch Crash is the option to consider for crash accents; the 24" Turk Flat Ride is the option to consider for ride patterns.
The listed best new prices are £496 for the Epoch Crash and £653 for the Turk Flat Ride. The supplied details do not establish their tone, volume or stick response, so auditioning them is the best way to judge which suits your playing.
