Over the past year I've had: Rubber Queen 2.2, Rubber Queen 2.4, Der Kaiser and a Try All Sticky Lite (all with lightweight tubes).
I wouldn't go for a Rubber Queen again. The bounce they give feels almost unpredictable and a bit wacky. They give the bike a really unstable feel and tend to pinch fairly easy. Really not a fan of how they make your riding look either.
Kaiser's are incredible tyres, yes a little fat when new but chop a few nobbles off and you're not far off the weight of a Rubber Queen anyway. Super stable, very hard to pinch, amazing grip.
Try All Sticky Lite is by far the best 26" option in my opinion. Really light, amazing grip, enough bounce so that it's not throwing you all over the place on the rear wheel.
