If so, could you share what bottom bracket you're using? I'm finding
conflicting information about the proper spindle taper and width.

Yes, I am. And I'm using the TA Axix Light BB with it at 122mm length and
BSC threading. It has a square taper that is, of course, designed to work
directly with TA's crankset. This BB has two separate cartridge bearings
pressed into threaded cups that mount into each side of the BB shell.
Congrats! Exciting time!

I don't know if the grommets would play nice with the Camlock system, but
you could certainly remove them and put the Camlocks on. Two concerns in
that respect--first, how wide are the HABs at the top? I think you'd be
pushing it with anything under 9 or so as far as the Camlock system goes.
Speaking of which I'm wondering if anyone has used the Carradice Super C
front panniers on the HAR. Is there enough room for the cam-lock in that
little V between the edge of the rail and mounting bracket? (Does that make
sense?)
