A trick for fitting cross top levers and a handlebar bag on a drop bar is to use two stems (assuming you have a threadless stem). Mount your bars on the upper stem, and a short piece of bar on the lower stem. The lower gives you a place to mount a bag and separates it from your handlebars. It adds a bit of weight, but this is touring, not racing- a half pound will not hurt you.
