I have sks longboards mounted to my Sam behind the fork crown with a Sheldon
nut. The fender line is nice, and this has the advantge of allowing the fender
to be adjusted (or removed entirely) just by removing a single bolt and without
disrupting the brake adjustment.
I don't see any advantag

If you don't want to get a Sheldon Fender nut, you can mount the L-bracket
in front of the fork crown, as shown in the Riv youtube video, but The rear
part of the fendere will sit higher, making a flap more necessary (of
course some folks will insist that a flap is always necessary). :)

I originally had a daruma on mine, but it was too tight under there to the
tire, so I switched to an L-bracket to improve tire clearance

none of the rivendells have anything built in on the forks to accommodate
front fender mounting, you'll have to use a l-bracket or a fork daruma.
for metal fenders most of us use fork darumas, that's how i have it on my
orange sam.

Whichever way you choose.
Brake bolt is fine (L-bracket-- you can use Sheldon Fender Nuts for easier
on/off). Mount it under the fork crown with a fork crown daruma bolt. Some
bicycle forks have threaded fender mount, but I don't think Rivs have that.
