I like that it is black (not chrome) and does not swivel. I tried it out with my preferred 1-liter water bottle and it works great. Haven't tried it with a near-empty or empty (meaning light weight) bottle yet. It also came with a standard coozy for regular 12 oz. cans and bottles.
My wife's bike has that one on it. I didn't even try it with a 1L bottle.
I lined hers with leftover velcro (the shaggy side) so the plastic was covered on the inside (it's wide enough her travel cup of choice rattles).
Enjoy,

You are such a tease!
OK, but it will be later this week or next as I will have to remove it from the bike. It's a simple two-screw bar clamp for 1" bars with one screw attaching the mount to the cup so you can swivel the cup to any angle. Very simple design.

No Need to remove it just for a photo, turn the handlebars and snap a pic of the back side. We should be able to figure it out from there with your description you've provided.

That looks to me like the original purpose is to hold cups/bottles. So that is a perfect solution for the question asked. Yet another option available at an affordable price!
Thanks eastcoaster, and welcome to the forum!
