Max rear tire clearance for the standard front derailleur, depending on frame design, is 42mm (measured width) for 700c tires. Bikes with tires wider than this using a standard road width chainline can be built using the 1x drivetrain option, or the wide front derailleur and crankset. The Rival eTap AXS wide front derailleurs, made for use with the 43/30T crankset, will accommodate 700c tires up to 45mm wide or larger, depending on frame specifications.
