If it's the former then I will try to get it done but I just discovered that the rear brake does not have a valve on it. I don't know if that is because this may be a aftermarket brake or what, but it looks like something was broken off where the valve should be. From what I understand this may not be a cheap thing to do also so I don't know if I can invest the money for it too.

If it is the latter I don't know if I have the time, patience, or knowledge to "rebuild" it. I see there are kits with the part for them that are relatively cost effective but damn, I just want it operable.
Bleeder nipple may be in different places depending upon caliper. I've found them on forward side of caliper before.



And it may be broken off from over-tightening. Simple matter to remove with screw extractor or drill out carefully and fish out remaining pieces of thread.
