There are, or so it seems, two ways to install the rack. Either you mount it to both the brake hole in the fork crown, via the included hardware, and the front drop out eyelets OR you can, as I have, mount the rack at the eyelets and directly to the front fender. If you don't have fenders then go with the former. If you do have fenders, probably only metal ones would work, you'd probably want to gothe way I did. I really couldn't get it to work any other way.
