Tubular isn't a no brainer. There are pros and cons to using both tubular and clincher.
Rim depth vs wind really depends on the size of the rider. Smaller riders (ladies, jrs) may have issues handling anything deeper than a 404 on the front. Larger riders may be OK.
Do you have pics of these wheels? I didn't know that Ritchey made a track hub.
Regarding nuts/bolts, I know the 505/Ritchey set are allen bolts. Not sure about the Reynolds.
For rim depth, I'm 5'8", and weigh 165.
