Abstract

A bicycle battery connection system includes a battery data determination circuit, a battery data processing circuit and an adapter. The battery data determination circuit is electrically connected to one of the first-type battery having an MCU and a second-type battery without an MCU through the adapter for enabling battery data of the connected battery to be processed by the battery data processing circuit and outputted as battery status for display on a display device in front of the user and for further battery output control. Thus, either a first-type battery or a second-type battery can be used and detected for automatic matching, and therefore the battery connection system allows a bicycle to use any of different types of batteries.
