The geometry diagram for the 47 (https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1403/7343/files/ROADINI-470-Geo.jpg?7649874663519573416x) shows a 38mm tire, with 55mm between the chainstays. It probably will take 42mm tires but not more. You can count on 38mm at the very least. With caliper brakes I wouldn't push the limits if you intend to ride in muddy conditions or have fenders.
