Hi Roman,
140mm is definitely in the range of the historic bridges of the Hoffmann lutes, which have widths between 139 mm (MH 9) and 149 mm (JCH R 7). The baroque lute of Le Luth Dore also has 140mm, which is - in my very personal opinion - really good to handle.

But as Matthew said, that is really a personal preference. And indeed it is necessary to try that for yourself.

Best regards
Markus
