Or do what I did, get an 8sp cassette, take the pins out that hold the cassette together (they are just for convenience), use the 7sp spacers with the 8sp cogs and the 11 or 12th locking gear, and shift the cable adjuster so it just doesn't drop onto the 8th gear. Sound more complex than it is, you can also use an 8p on a 7sp but the shifting might not be 100% clean, but it will work.
If your frame is the same as my Torino, the wheel change is straight forward.
I got a pair of RS10's in April, a big improvement over the Weinmanns XR18's
