There is only one way to really find out and that would be compare them side by side. I just so happen to have a Moonlander (NOT FOR SALE) but you could determine if it is worth the wait. I'll PM you will details when I'm back in Grand Forks it will be sometime the 21st. The Moonlander will be with so you can check them both out and determine if you like your gratification immediately or delayed.
Willing to sell 2011 Salsa Mukluk. Bike is stock and has the normal wear and tear expected from a year of use. Looking for $1,000 but will entertain offers. Will be in Grand Forks Dec. 21st through the holidays. If interested reply to the post and I'll bring the Mukluk with for inspection, test riding or other general merriment. Best to let me know my the 19th as I will not bring it all the way to Nodak if no one is interested.
