Betsy (Bikeverse)

Betsy is a Roadmaster MT Sport child's bike, that features briefly in When Bikes Argue 2.

In reality
Betsy was purchased so that the Dozerfleet founder's youngest biological sister could have a bike of her own to ride. It remained in the family's possession until said sister outgrew it, just as Betsy predicts in When Bikes Argue 2 would inevitably happen one day.

In universe
In December of 2005, Colly fears that snowfall will lead to bike chain rust, leading to her being sold. She tries to pass on this paranoia to Betsy, but Betsy doesn't buy Colly's reasoning. Frustrated, Colly recommends that Betsy befriend Ackro if she wants someone to talk to, accusing both of them of being "part of the problem." Betsy misinterprets this friend suggestion as a matchmaking opportunity, and is offended due to the vast "age difference" between her pre-programmed mental age and Ackro's, protesting that Ackro is "too old" for her. An embarrassed Colly insists that she didn't intend to convey any such thing. Betsy's fate after this exchange remains unknown.

Personality
Betsy is a kid's bike that cares more about convenience than causes. She cannot understand Colly's fanatical obsession with "fighting for rights," and has a logical assessment for every situation, similar to Ackro. She is not friends with Ackro yet; but according to Colly, she should be, given her similar personality. She also has a tendency to misinterpret friend suggestions as romantic matchmaking attempts.

Trivia

 * Her voice is intended to resemble that of either Junior Asparagus or Laura Carrot, but with small hints of a New Yorker / Bostonian accent.
