Specializing in electric city bikes, electric mountain bikes (VTT), and tandem VTTs, EVTT Provence supplies equipment suited to urban exploration and rugged Calanques trails. Rentals include models such as the Cube Kathmandu trekking bike, Cube Reaction electric mountain bike, and the Stereo Hybrid 120 electric mountain bike from 2021 and 2022 model years. Many VTT options feature hydraulic disc brakes, adjustable suspensions, fully suspended frames, and sizes for men, women and children. Helmets and repair kits are provided with selected rentals, and optional accessories include saddlebags and automatic pedals.

EVTT Provence lists guided and self-guided formats and designs experiences for both family-friendly outings and sporty adult excursions.
