M-Wave Bicycle Bottle Cage: How to Open The Clamp?
I have ordered M-Wave Plastic Bicycle Bottle Cage and I can't figure out how to open the clamp wide open. Is there any way to figure this out?

From the looks of the picture, it seems that they used a quick release lock. It appears you should be able to adjust the opening by first flipping the QR open and then unscrewing it outward to open the clamp. If that does not do the trick, then try removing the QR all the way out and open the clamp fully. Slip that into the bar or tube. Then screw the QR back in until semi snug then flip the lever to tighten.

Okay, I've solved my problem. It turns out that I have to turn the black thing that holds the clamp in place to unscrew it and that widens the clamp. I'm making it too hard and I really think the small instructional manual is in order.
