The bleeder valve is a little nipple. It will have a hole in the end of it and a nut at the base... maybe around 10mm. It takes two people to bleed the brake lines.

Also you must hold the brake pedal down untill nipple is tightened again. Procedure is: pump pedal a about 6 times, hold foot pressure on down pedal, have assistant open nipple while pedal is being pressed down, then retighten nipple beffore the pedal is released. Then repeat entire procedure, until solid stream of fluid flow from nipple.
