Abby Hatcher Wiki

Abby's Tricycle is very frequently wrongly called a bike (which is slang short for bicycle) which is inaccurate since that means two wheels. It is most definitely a tricycle, the short form of which would be 'trike', not 'bike'.

Merchandise error[]

AdventureBike

One playset which includes Abby's tricycle refers to it as an "adventure bike" even though it clearly has three wheels and not two.

News error[]

Even a reporter made the mistake of calling it a bike:

Spoken errors[]

SOG[]

Abby commits this error herself in the episode Shape of Grumbles, saying "bike" twice:

"WE HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO STOP HIS HICCUPS. TO THE BIKE!"
"COME ON, TO THE BIKE!"

OOTG[]

Terry then Abby then Bozzly all make the mistake in Otis on the Go as well:

"SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR NEW SOUPED-UP BIKE, ABBY?"
"I LOVE MY NEW BIKE."
"BOZZLY LOVE BIKE, TOO."

Transformed accuracy[]

When Abby's trike changes into the Fuzzly Flyer it is correct to call it a bike because the two rear wheels come together into a single wheel.

ABM[]

In Abby Babysits Melvin, Melvin calls it "Abby's flying bike".

Transcript errors and accuracy[]

The transcripts used on the TVOkids website also frequently wrongly refer to it as a bike. This is in two recycled (likely cut and pasted) descriptions of stock footage used in the show:

"They both jump on the bike and say YEAH!"
"They jump on the bike."

Despite this, another recycled description of the animation at the start DOES correctly identify the vehicle:

"Abby gets her helmet and gadgets on and rides a tricycle."

The Fuzzlies' Talent Show has a transcript here which also uses the phrase "Abby brings her bike near him".
