Custom Nissan Primastar for The Ride Companion
Partnering with specialist UK converter MTB Vans, Nissan tailored the high-spec Primastar Tekna+ to meet the rigorous demands of off-grid podcasting and video production. This custom van features a fully fitted load area with dedicated storage for mountain bikes and equipment, Starlink mobile Wi-Fi connectivity, and an integrated content editing workstation. Additional enhancements like off-road tyres, a powerful LED light bar, and a roof-mounted solar panel ensure the team can access and document even the most remote trails. With bespoke storage solutions and a 240V power supply, this Primastar is perfectly equipped to support The Ride Companion’s mission to capture the best mountain biking content, wherever the adventure leads.
