It depends how tight you secure it... I ran two straps around the dry bag which then wrapped around the handlebars, leaving a gap between the top of the bag and the actual bars, in that case you are only restricted by two straps, which leaves pretty much full use of the bars.
The issue I had, and this was a big issue, was that the bag was so big it rested on the mudguard, which meant that it could pivot to either side of the mudguard at it's own will. I will certainly buy a smaller dry bag for my sleeping things (or 'sleeping system' if you must) to make sure it hangs below the handlebars and does not rest on the mudguard... I assume then it will stay where I want it as opposed to where gravity wants it...

But if I strap a drybag to my dropbar I'm not able to ride on the tops anymore right? Or I have to squeeze my fingers between it?
