Thunder Burts. If you want supple, you'll be amazed how supple they are if you get the no-protection version. I had no flatting issues until a year(ish?) in, when they got 5-6 flats in rapid succession. i figured they were done, so that's when I shifted the Racing Ralphs for more winter tread. My 2.1" TB's and now RR's are so supple they are smoother riding on dirt of any kind save asphalt equivilant hardpack than my 38mm Barlow Pass, and that is saying something.
At least for the riding I do, I disagree with the experience Jan mentions. Lugs grip better in loose gravel/dirt climbing and cornering than do smooth. My RR's handle these better than my TB's did. I am sure Jan is right on the pure science of it, but in the practical world of the trails I ride, knobs grip better on dirt.
