Have you considered the Furious Fred? It's made in 26" and 29er and is supposed to be extremely fast rolling. I've heard that Schwalbe's warnings of fragility from being a racing tire are overstated and they're actually OK on durability. http://www.schwalbe.com/en/offroad-reader/furious-fred.html
I guess you may not want nobs though. . . I wondered for a while if the ideal fatty slick would ever come out and I'm hoping the Big One is it, just ordered some from Germany. The tubeless Super Motos are already like riding a magic carpet. It's awesome having a bike that's got clearances for a 60-77mm tire and fenders!
