Alright thats it im going for it! what battery did you end up using? I got this bike as a box of parts and a frame, alot of stuff is missing. so i figured i'd resto-mod it. Do i need to stay with the same wattage or less for the taillight? i think its a dual filament 6w 22w, which i cant seem to find in 12v however there are plenty of 8w26w
