May seem like a dumb question (or probably just overthinking as usual) but how do you have the rubber pads on the grip oriented on your bike? Do you have the pads on the top and bottom or do you have them on the front and back? I've seen pics of them both ways online.

 

I'd go top/bottom but really it's just preference.

 

I have the rubber pads almost, but not quite, front/back. Before I buttoned everything up, I slid them on the bars and rotated them around until the grip felt the most comfortable in my hand and that's where I set them.

 

Thanks guys

That's what I ended up doing and that's how mine ended up. Pads on front/back just felt better to me.
