Personality[]
Handlebarb is tomboyish. She likes bicycles and doing tricks with them. She also dresses as a child and plays in a brute way, as she has many wounds.

Trivia[]
- Handlebarb has an androgynous appearance that makes her appear boyish. Various foreign dubs have referred to her with masculine pronouns and terminology, and have had her voiced by males, possibly because of this.
- In the first version of the Polish dub of "Too Many Treasures", Handlebarb was dubbed by an unknown male actor, but in the redubbed "Too Many Treasures" and "The Invitation", she was dubbed by Justyna Kowalska.
- In the entirety of the Brazilian Portuguese dub of the first season, Handlebarb is voiced by a man, and she is referred to as Guido, a name considered masculine; she is also referred to with masculine pronouns and terminology in season 1, despite being inconsistently referred to with feminine pronouns and terminology several times. As of the episode "Secret in a Bottle", she is voiced by a woman, and for the rest of the series she is solely referred to as a female character.
- In the second season of the Latin American Spanish dub, as well as in the episode "Trick or Creek", she was voiced by a man and was referred to by masculine pronouns and terminology. She was voiced by a woman in the first season, and in all other episodes of the third season.
- Initially Handlebarb is voiced by a man in the Finnish dub, but later episodes have her voiced by a woman.
- The name "Handlebarb" is a portmanteau of the word "handlebar" (referring to the handlebars of a bike) and the name "Barb" (a diminutive of the name "Barbara"). In fact, "The Bike Thief" has her question, "Who am I without my handles? Just… Barb?".
