That is the Eezibleed from Gunson. Still widely available. Easy to get
through eBay, www.gunson.co.uk/item.aspx?item=1818 or Amazon.co.uk.
I have improvised often enough using an old bicycle inner tyre.

As remarked before, it is generally a good idea to
adjust back your drum brakes and push back the
calliper pistons (using e few small wedges between
pads and discs) to minimise the volume in the
brake cylinders and callipers if the bleed nipples
are positioned in such a way that air can remain
trapped in the cylinders or callipers, although
this is a fairly rare occurrence.<br>
