How to mount this clamp?

derk-<< Probably a very stupid question, but I reallly would like to hear if I
should mount this clamp with the text "Pro" pointing towards the steer or
so that it can be read by a peron standing behind the bike. >><BR><BR>

Either way but mount it with the 'Pro' facing aft if you use a carbon seatpost.

Thanks for your answer. I have an aluminium seatpost (millennium)
Just out of curiosity: what is "aft" ?

With the seatube slot in the back, rotating the clamp around 180 degrees
'tends' to make the clamping forces more 'round' and helps to prevent cracked
carbon posts, mostly on Campagnolo ones, which are really thin. But I do it on
all carbon posts.

Ohhh, 'what' not 'why'...

Aft meaning facing towards the back. Naval term...20 years in the USN, these
things don't go away...
