Been waiting to purchase a hybrid, but just acquired a Giant Iguana MTB from my father. Bad news - it's a 1994 model; Good news - it's in excellent shape. On my way home, I dropped the bike off at my LBS for a tune up. It had been hanging in his garage for years, and the rear wheel needed trued, and of course the entire bike needed a good once over as it's not been on the road for I'm guessing 15 years or so.

I should be getting it back next week, and I'm looking to make it more of a hybrid bike. I'm guessing the first order of business is a new set of tires. According to BikePedia, the stock tires are 26" X 1.95". How narrow can I go? Can anyone offer some suggestions to a good hybrid-style tire for road & light trail (paved/packed gravel/dirt), perhaps something slick in the middle, and a bit of side tread?
