Our staff insists that they need to continue testing the Moonlander bikes. It’s a tough job but someone has to do it.

Stone Harbor is pleased to announce that we have added Surly as a vendor to our strong list of quality outdoor gear. We have recently acquired the terribly hard to get Moonlander Fat Bikes and are offering them for rental.

The Moonlander is like no other bike. Surly designed it to ride where there are no roads, no trails and no people. And in northern Minnesota, that means wet stuff, roots, rocks, pebbles, gravel, sand and many types of snow. You read that right: this bike rips it up on the snow. Which means you have a whole new way to enjoy Minnesota’s white bounty.

How can a bike go over snow? The Moonlander runs 4.8˝ tires on 100mm rims. Such a large footprint allows you to ride them at very low pressure, which (as with a snowshoe) enables unparalleled traction and float.

Of course, we couldn’t just take Surly’s word on it, so various members of our staff fought volunteered to try them out for you. They love them!

Here are the details:

• Rentals are $65.00 per day.
• Rentals can be picked up anytime after 10:00 am and must be back by 6:00pm unless special arrangements are made.
• Rentals include the bike, head/tail lamps, and helmet.
• There are a limited number available so reservations are strongly encouraged.
