Depress the brake pedal and hang a weight off the pedal overnight. That will force any residual air in the system to the master cylinder where it is harmless. After doing this, if the brakes still won't work correctly, you likely have a mechanical problem with the braking system rather than air in the system. You can use this same concept to bleed the front brake and clutch by tying back the levers overnight.
