I have like the Maxxis DTH on my Trek 950 mt bike converted to urban cruiser.

For me they seem to be a good balance of flat resistance and good rolling resistance .

I think they weigh in at around 550g.

That weight sure beats some of the 900 to 1000 gram 26" tires I tried.

Yesterday I repaired a front flat on the DTH's.
Found a small piece of truck tire wire in it.

Those dang £$@=$%*&¥ wires would flat Fred Flintstone's rock wheels.

I thought Tioga Power Blocks rode pretty similar and weigh close to the same.

I have been pleased with Continental Contact Speed tires in 700c and have 3 pairs.

I noticed they offered a 26 x 2.0 size and ordered a set I have yet to use.

I had to look around a bit to find the 26 size.
If you need a good reliable 700c tire it's not a bad choice in that size either.

My next build of a Schwinn High Plains will be running my 26" pair.

That's the tire Rivendell offered for a while in 700c, maybe they still do, for what its worth.
They called it something like the basketball tread tire.
