Yes, blakcloud, I assumed you were asking because you wanted a used one at a fair used price. I pointed out that you can order one from Riv just to dispute the assertion that very few of them were ever made. Even though the text on the description page does not list a 55, I know that they will take your order for a 55, and will recommend a 55 if that's the right size for you. The drop down menu for the sizes you can order does list the 55. I pointed that out to encourage your search for a used one. I expect that there are a lot more than a half-dozen 55cm 700c Hilsens in the world. I sincerely hope you find one in the condition you want and at the price you want.
