My primary road bike has wide 650b wheels. The wheel & tires allow this bike to be more versatile than my skinny tire bike. Grand Bois Hetre tires & Michelin AirCOMP Ultra-Light C4 tubes 26" 1.6-2.1 are what I use, the tire can do most anything you've mentioned. I much prefer a wide tire in 650b than 700c.
