Velo vitality sell the Compass tyre.range, including the fast 26 inch tyre. Might solve your problem with a single wheelset.
Yes, I have a set on order... It will be interesting to see how they perform in uk conditions. I have a feeling that the high regard for these tyres in the US might be something to do with the roads they ride on over there. I need to be convinced because they are
very expensive. Watch this space.
I already have a bike that I use two sets of 26"wheels on, one with relatively narrow tyres, but you simply can't get a "fast" tyre in 26" size. Nothing that would compare with a decent 700c road tyre anyway.
Presuming that by 26" you mean 559, there are tyres down to 20mm. Schwalbe lists 20,23 & 23-559 on its website, for example. I don't know where you can get them, though.
I long since gave up looking at manufacturers websites as you very often find the tyre you want isn't distributed in the uk. In any case (IMHO) Schwalbe don't make fast tyres narrow doesn't always mean fast and certainly not in 26" size. Having said that Specialized used to make a superb 1" cover for those of us with a yen for smaller wheels but it seems these days that uk distributors have decided that the only folk riding on 26" wheels are mountain bikers.
I'm still looking at a 26"/650c set up, and certainly for my wife who has shrunk to the extent that she now inhabits the twilight zone of cyclists who can just about manage on 700c's but would be far better on the smaller wheels. All you need is brakes that can manage a 6mm drop or, getting back on track, disc brakes.
