I agree, email them. They have answered my queries in the past quite promptly.

Based on my older 7 speed 135mm OLD rear wheel on a Univega there is some dish required but it is quite minimal compared to most 8, 9 or 10 speed 130mm OLD road wheels. With the use of a hub with narrow enough flange spacing distance a dishless 7 speed rear wheel could be built but it looks to me like the flange spacing would be a bit narrow for the best wheel strength.
