You need to keep 26" and I'd keep the 2.1 but too or close to it.
Get yourself on chain reaction cycles and have a look through the tyres on there for a bargain. You'll be looking for something relatively smooth in the middle for good speed on the road and a bit knobbly on the edges for off road.
DMR Moto RT tyres were good for the road and light off road work as long as it wasn't muddy.
I've got a 2.5" Michelin Wild Grip R on the front and a 2.4" Continental Baron on the back and they are horrific on the road even fully pumped up.
