That should work great, as long as the LEDs you use are rated for the same amount of current. They'll divide up the voltage whatever way makes them use the same current. If the light circuit is 6V, make sure it won't send more current than the LEDs can withstand. If you use a USB 5V supply, a white and red LED in series should self-regulate to a reasonable current level (probably lower than their rating).
So having a little trouble trying to work this out, I got this front light with 3 "ultra light" led's in it. The advert says 2 aa battery but in fact it takes 4 aaa batteries so that would work out at 6v but not sure what current would be. It looks like I should be able to get a replacement led bulb for the rear pretty easy.

Would any of these bulbs work for the back to level out the current or have I got to much at the front?
