It is lighter and faster without the brakes.

I have the same frame and fork setup, and the fork brake bosses should have been in a small bag with the fork compression cap. The bosses for the Easton fork also have the plate that your spring wire will anchor off of, so if you were to try to take some off of an old fork you would need those as well. If you have gone through all of the packaging that came with your frame and fork carefully, I would give your shop a call and have them get some from Cannondale.
