Yes, it's for the tandem. I don't think the Surly Nice can be mounted to the caliper eyelet, can it?

It can be, but you'd need to make the hardware yourself.
If you look at this photo

you can see the rear boss they refer to in their literature

rear through-eyelet...attach a flat fender or add an additional/alternate rack strut to the >crown of your fork

You can also get adapter for adding mid-blade eyelets, Tubus do good ones like this. If you don't mind me asking, if you're speccing a touring tandem why not get mid-blade eyelets on the fork?

Oh, this is great, thanks. I think your suggested setup of one strut on crown + Tubus mid-blade add-ons will be plenty strong.

And yes, it's a pertinent question. I might be getting something off the shelf that comes without the eyelets. Still tbc, but a change of plans might be on the cards.
