I have both Arkel and Ortlieb handlebar bags, and neither of them obstruct any hand positions. The mounts on both have a total width of about 8cm, though the Arkel can be adjusted slightly narrower than that if you desire. I find the Ortlieb bag slightly easier to detach from its mount than the Arkel.
